Aesthetics and performance combined in a saddle that weighs less than 170 grams designed by Repente on the basis of feedback from professional athletes.
At TIME we understand the craftsmanship and experience it takes to achieve excellence. To dress up our cutting-edge bikes with a bit of vintage style, we consulted directly with the Italian craftspeople at Selle Repente. This collaboration with was created for riders who love blending high-tech and high-style.
The Quasar saddle is characterised by a 142 mm "flat" design, integrating in a wide channel designed to relieve perineal pressure. The "close fit" effect produced by this shape provides comfort without having to resort to thick layers of padding and allows users to immediately find their most effective riding position.
The shell is made of PA12 reinforced with long carbon fibres (LCF Technology). The padding is in polyurethane, while water-based non-slip polyurethane microfiber has been chosen for the cover. The rail is made of Aisi Stainless Steel and further strengthened by a special process called Shot 304, which hardens the metal surface and makes it more resistant.
