Portuguese manufacturer Gelu Carbon Creation has introduced the third version of its saddle with integrated carbon absorption, the C3. A hyper-lightweight model of only 85 grams initially developed for urban bikes but which looks like an outstanding option for gravel and road.
This model was inspired by the old saddles with steel springs for comfort. The Gelu Carbon Creation components brand has taken those models as a reference to reinvent them using the latest technology. The result is the Gelu C3, its 85 grams carbon saddle that takes advantage of the material’s flex to minimize vibrations and impacts.
The carbon springs that accompany the saddle in its entirety, manage to absorb and drain most of the vibrations caused by the often irregular floor. The generous central opening is specially designed to guarantee a total absence of pressure in the prosthetic region.
The Gelu saddle can be ordered on the Gelu website by supplying your preferences and details through a 3D model. This makes the saddle truly customized and worth the price.
