S a d dles Ergonomic cycling Bike riding is real pleasure when the bike is perfectly fitted to the driver. This is the only way to guarantee that even after hours in the saddle, the bottom nor do hands fall asleep and cycling remains painfree. Driving pleasure and health advantages only evolve completely under these circumstances. Pain and uncomfortable pressure or numbness are signs of impaired adaptation of the bicycle to the 48
individual needs of the driver. When riding a bike, man and bike should work together as a unit. This smooth interlocking of man and machine is called ergonomics. Therefore the contact points of the driver with the bicycle saddle and grips are of particular importance for the ergonomic cycling. These components provide the real sense of hard work, because the entire weight of the rider rests on them. That’s why there shouldn’t be a compromise
in the function of these components.
