Technical details:
BUNNY HOP:
A very robust and tough material. Yet, the fabric is very stretchy so that it adapts perfectly to the body.

X-FRAME:
The A-shaped frame inspired by the MILLE GTS bib shorts. The straps ensure a secure fit of the pad while stabilising the torso and lower back.

SILICONE LEG GRIPPERS:
A more robust, gravel-specific version of ASSOS’ Lycra leg grippers in a design that provides a secure hold on the thigh without adding too much volume.
SHOCK-ABSORB DAMPING TWIN:
microShock and filterFoam provide a two-layer, 19mm thick pad for maximum comfort on long tours. A thermo-moulded design to minimise skin irritation and the Odor Control Top Sheet Tex for odour control are essential for long tours and bikepacking.

GOLDENGATE:
Thanks to the GOLDENGATE process, where the seat pad is only sewn on the pad at some edges, the pad offers increased mobility while following all your movements. This creates less friction from seams and improves the comfort.

KRATERCOOLER:
Small holes in the front of the pad that increase air flow, ensuring best temperature regulation on hot summer days.

3D WAFFLE:
A patented, three-layer perforated foam increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
