Our yearslong research with Project Tri has revealed that not all triathletes are the same. Some riders sit with more pressure on the middle of the saddle, while others sit towards the front. This is precisely why our development team created the Power Position system and designed a perfect saddle for each riding position.
The V-shape top view of the SR Tri Men Front is specifically designed for triathletes who tilt their pelvis forward in the aero position and place more pressure on the front of the saddle –requiring special ergonomics for optimum relief.
The front position allows a lower aero posture – the back is flatter and the front area of the saddle is especially loaded. This leads to increased pressure in the genital area, which is relieved by the distinctive V-shape with a short and wide front area.
During the three-year development of Project Tri, our experts analyzed various sitting positions of top triathletes. For example, Jan Frodeno and Laura Philipp ride in the Power Position Mid and Imogen Simmonds and Jan Stratmann ride in the Power Position Front
The BioMechanical Reference line (BMR line) is marked on the saddle surface of all SR Tri saddles. This shows the meridian of the saddle – the point at which the saddle is exactly 75 millimeters wide. The BMR line is a reference point for the correct fitting of height, fore/aft position, inclination and the correct saddle nose distance. The BMR line is also an important reference point for precise adjustment using our Fittingbox Road.
The SR Tri Men saddle is Made in Europe! This guarantees the best material quality and manufacturing while shortening supply chains, reducing production waste and complying to European recycling standards. That’s good for the environment – and good for you!
The padding of the SR Tri Men utilizes resilient Orthopedic Comfort Foam that’s precisely shaped for the demanding requirements of triathlon training. It’s firm enough to prevent energy loss (vs excessively soft padding) while providing optimized support to effectively reduce pain and pressure.
The ergonomically optimized V-shape design of the SR Tri Men Front is specially developed for the demands of triathlon. With its short and wide nose, the saddle offers you maximum legroom without increasing pressure on the sensitive perineal area. The short saddle nose also provides space for micro-movements, improves pressure distribution over long distances and enables optimum pedaling ergonomics. This effectively prevents back muscle fatigue and relieves the muscle sequences you’ll need for running. This means: more power on the bike and a better start to the run!
During long rides in the aero position, pressure on the sensitive perineal area is persistently very high – reducing blood flow to the genital area. This can lead to numbness and erectile dysfunction in the worst cases. The SR Tri Men is equipped with an especially wide and deep relief channel that guarantees effective pressure relief and enhanced comfort.
