MATERIAL OF SIMON BILLEAU

Concerning the air flow effect, I’m a bit
more skeptical about their efficiency.
I’d have a hard time saying I felt it.
However, what is sure is that associated
with the PAS and the predominancy
of the white color on the saddle, I was
never too warm in the pelvic region
which is an essential point when we
want to stay in position for a minimum
of 4h30.

Finally, I’m totally seduced by the
chocks damping effect. However, in
the past I already used 100% carbon
saddles (ultra light, like 89g...) and at
the expense of a good and performing
run...
Finally, the cylinders ensure a perfect grip and a
stable position, whatever the weather conditions
because the polymers are not subject to climate Ever since, I’ve centered my research on the
changes. compromise between comfort and performance.
From this point of view, the «Active Density»

In the facts, what impressed me the most is the grip padding is great without impairing the global
that these cylinders offered. Under any weather weight. And the integrated elastomer in the
condition, wether it was in the heat and thus with structure of the saddle plays a role of additional
a lot of sweat... or under the rain, I didn’t have any damper (red part on the picture).
problem to remain sat down on the saddle.

The Nack :

The «Nack» rail is made of nano-carbon fibers, kevlar (it’s
a material which is 5 times more rigid than aluminum) and
aluminum filaments. This alloy is obtained by a process that
they call «Braided Carbon Rail». It’s actually a braiding of
fibers which allows to obtain an interleaving of the different
fibers in multilayers. It guarantees the tenacity (tenacity of a
material means that it can resist the propagation of a crack...),
the longevity and long-lasting properties.

Finally, the U-Cage is the only available product for this
range of saddles.
