Grit Core Lite

The Grit Core Lite saddle is designed for smaller riders on road, gravel and mixed terrain. Its crowned shape enhances pedaling space, while the raised rear section offers optimal support and promotes an aerodynamic riding posture. An ergonomic center cut-out reduces pressure on sensitive areas, ensuring all-day comfort.

COMPACT COMFORT

The Grit Core Lite saddle is designed with a shorter and narrower shape, tailored for the pelvic width and shorter reach bike geometries of compact riders. This ensures maximum comfort while maintaining an efficient riding position. With supportive and comfortable padding, an ergonomic shape for balanced weight distribution, and a central cut-out that reduces perineal pressure, the Grit Core Lite delivers all-day comfort across any terrain.

MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY

The saddle’s narrow crowned shape minimizes inner thigh interference, while the shorter nose facilitates greater movement, allowing for enhanced pedaling efficiency. High-elastic PU foam padding sits on a durable recycled PU base, offering sit bone support for lighter weights, damping vibrations from the terrain for a smoother ride, and promoting efficient power transfer.

FAST REACTION

The Grit Core Lite’s smooth-edged design minimizes friction and interference with the inner thigh during fast movements or sprints. A subtle upward curve at the rear ensures strong ischial support, promoting a more efficient and aerodynamic riding position.
