SCHMOLKE Saddle SL 79 | 1K Black Edition
This saddle combines minimal weight with maximum comfort.
The basis for the exceptional seating comfort is the enormously stable and very flexible saddle cloth. The saddle, which weighs just 81 grams, has high-oval seat stays with a special arrangement of fibers that make it particularly stable. A perfect finish also spoils the eye and leaves nothing to be desired in the finished product.
As with all Schmolke Carbon products, the general 2-year warranty on manufacturing defects also applies to the SL 79 saddle, as well as the individual crash replacement offer.
WHAT DOES SL
“SL” stands for super light. In this series, Schmolke only uses fibers of T800 quality for handlebars and seat posts, while fibers of T300 to T700 quality are used that are customary in the industry. In addition, the low weight with the well-known stability is made possible by the load-bearing layer structure.
SMILE CARBON
Already in his youth he started racing with his brother Matthias. A passion for sport and an interest in technology prompted Schmolke to study mechanical engineering in a targeted manner and to do a student research project under lightweight construction legend Hans Christian Smolik. In 1992, after his diploma thesis on the subject of "new materials and the theory of carbon racing handlebars", Schmolke Carbon was founded in the same year and the first carbon racing handlebars were produced. He gained specializations in lightweight construction at the aerospace manufacturer EADS, for which he initially worked full-time. In this way, he was always able to incorporate the skills he had learned into the refinement of his products. These constant improvements to details have kept Schmolke Carbon bicycle parts at the top for over 20 years. Carbon handlebars and seat posts for mountain bikes and racing bikes are among the best and lightest that the market has to offer. Schmolke Carbon products are produced in Constance on Lake Constance.
