When it gets a little rough and bumpy on the bike, it’s all about that extra bit of comfort. Where “rough and bumpy” means gravel and “extra bit of comfort” means gebioMized Valid. We developed this saddle for cyclists with a certain thirst for adventure on their gravel bike. Be it on a fast ride in the afternoon or an epic bikepacking trip, Valid got you covered. One key to that is his special superpower: those shiny new damping elements we implemented into the shell. As our Area and Sleak saddles, Valid also comes in two different shapes and versions, so every rider will find their perfect match. Ideally with the experienced support of their local bike fitter
Loading Types
Personal anatomy and riding position define the contact between saddle and cyclist. Thus, riders who predominantly stress the ischial area (picture left) load the saddle differently than those who ride with the load mainly on the pubic area. Accordingly, different sitting types place special demands on their saddles. Requirements that we fulfil with our gebioMized saddle shapes.
