"To take pressure off riders, we took a close look at the current trend in mountain bike geometries. What we saw was a new compact riding position that required a modern relief concept to satisfy the needs of a more upright riding posture."
"The SMS' larger relief channel and evolved ergonomic contours improves pressure distribution across the saddle. The SMS saddle's Y-shape and gently curved ergonomic surface improves rider mobility, pedaling dynamics and overall comfort. The compact design with its shortened, flat nose delivers more freedom of movement with significant relief and support when moving forward on steep climbs."
"The result is what Ergon claims to be the perfect all-around saddle for trail riding and technical terrain."
Ergon developed the SMS saddle lineup to suit modern, more upright mountain bike geometries and a compact riding position. The SMS introduces a shorter, wider nose, a larger pressure-relief channel, and refined contouring to improve pressure distribution across the sit-bone area. A Y-shaped, gently curved surface enhances rider mobility and pedaling dynamics while offering targeted relief and support when moving forward on steep climbs. The compact, flat-nose design increases freedom of movement and targets reductions in pressure, numbness, and pain across applications from cross-country to enduro, bikepacking, and e‑MTB.
