SEAT INSERTS
Based on scientifically proven studies, which are constantly repeated to ensure we are ahead of the fast changing demands of the sport, we are able to develop and offer a selection of pads that best solve the athlete’s needs.
SITTING
COMFORTABLY
‘Our products embody our commitment to innovation’ — this quote does not only stand for GORE® products like our waterproof or windproof jackets. The results of endless research, testing and developing are also applicable to products which are not as obvious, but still crucial when it comes to comfort.

THE GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® CUP
AN INNOVATIVE SEAT INSERT TECHNOLOGY |
Developed for ultimate comfort and protection, this seat insert technology takes it to the next level and allows cyclists to head out, day after day, ride after ride. CLIMATE CONTROL
PRESSURE RELEASE

ROAD
BIKE
When on a road bike, the riding position is moved forward and is mostly static, as opposed to on a mountain bike, when the rider moves on and off of the saddle frequently. The forward leaning road position also causes the pelvis to rotate toward the front, which results in a narrower sit bone angle at the point of contact between rider and saddle. |
MOUNTAIN
BIKE
The riding position on a mountain bike is more upright when compared to the road bike position. The main contact and weight distribution of the rider on the saddle is shifted backwards, with a much wider sit bone angle and a more rearward tilting of the pelvis.

VARIOUS
ROAD & MOUNTAIN
Our Active level seat inserts combine the needs of all riding styles in one shape. By linking both shapes from mountain- and road riding seat inserts we are able to offer an insert which is great for various cycling disciplines.

SEAT INSERTS LEVELS
|
EXPERT
Our expert level seat inserts are designed to offer maximum protection and comfort for all ride lengths and intensities. A complex shape and dense foam construction minimizes vibrations and avoids numbness by taking pressure off critical areas. |
Advanced
Advanced level seat inserts with a medium density foam offer a great protection and comfort while being light and breathable. A two-layer foam construction with specifically developed supporting zones reduces pressure on soft tissue and increases blood flow in critical areas, no matter how long the ride. |
Active
A single-layer with a less dense foam construction is used in Active level seat inserts. These inserts are scientifically developed for all cycling activities and offer the needed comfort and protection for either mountain, road or recreational rides. |
