Valois Tahti 3D Sella

€149,00

Sella da strada a punta corta con imbottitura a reticolo stampata in 3D, guscio in carbonio e carrelli in CR-MO. La parte superiore stampata regola sostegno e scarico della pressione lungo la sella e la struttura aperta lascia passare l'aria.

La Valois Tahti 3D Saddle sostituisce la schiuma con un reticolo in elastomero stampato. Il reticolo è più rigido dove serve sostegno e più morbido dove serve scarico, e non si comprime né assorbe acqua come la schiuma. Un canale centrale toglie pressione ai tessuti molli e aumenta la ventilazione.

Il guscio in carbonio mantiene la sella a 260 grammi e rigida sotto carico. La forma a punta corta è adatta a una posizione avanzata e aggressiva e a un bacino ruotato. È disponibile in due larghezze per adattarsi alla distanza tra gli ischi.

Descrizione

3D-printed padding instead of foam

The top is a printed lattice rather than moulded foam. The structure is denser where the saddle carries load and more open where it needs to give, so support and relief are built into the pad rather than added with layers.

What this gives you:

  • Pressure relief tuned across the saddle, not one uniform foam
  • Airflow through the open lattice
  • A pad that does not compress flat or soak up water over time

Carbon shell and rails, 180 grams

The shell and rails are carbon. That holds the weight to 180 grams and keeps the platform stiff, so power goes into the pedals rather than into a flexing saddle.

What this gives you:

  • A light saddle that holds its shape under load
  • A stiff base for a performance position
  • Carbon rails that suit a clamp rated for them, torqued to spec

Short nose with a central cutout

The short-nose shape puts less saddle in front of you, which suits a rotated pelvis and a low position. The central cutout relieves pressure on the soft tissue, and the two widths let you fit the saddle to your sit bones.

What this gives you:

  • A shape built for an aggressive road position
  • Pressure relief down the centre
  • A width to match how far apart your sit bones sit
