SM3 Saddle Series Designed from the ground up, Ergon's ergonomically optimized Mountain Bike Saddle combines high performance and fit in a previously unobtainable way. A 3D saddle shell - innovative 'hollows' in the shell - allow for considerably more damping material in the seat bone areas, than any other saddle in this category. 1: Ultra-thin, flex optimized carbon or GFK saddle shell with isolated rear mounting rails for added flex. 2: Innovative, multi-layered cushioning with progressive damping. Tuned damping correlates with saddle width / use. 3: Nose mounted micro damper. 4: Saddle nose underside rubber cushion for shouldering the bike. 5: Chaff-reducing silicon coating on Pro and Carbon Pro models. 6: Optional standard rails, or Monolink® rail system (patent pending) allowing for maximum adjustment. All SM3 saddles are designed and engineered in Germany and manufactured by hand by Selle Italia in Italy.

Which is the correct saddle width? Scientific studies have concluded that in order for a saddle to be comfortable, it must match the individual sit bone width of the rider. This distance however changes depending on the angle at which the rider's upper body is at. If the rider sits upright on the saddle, it is the rear parts of the sit bones which take their weight. As the rider leans more forward, then the point of the sit bone which makes contact rolls forwards. As the

pelvis is also V formed towards the front, the contact area on the saddle needs to be large enough to provide comfort in different sitting positions. Ergon saddles are designed around the male pelvis form. For riders with a sit bone width of 10 - 13cm we suggest size S, and for those with a sit bone distance of 12 - 15cm we suggest L. There is some cross over, so we suggest test riding where possible.

Dr. Kim Tofaute - Sports Ergonomist Head of Research and Development - Ergon
„From an ergonomic perspective pedals should not be overlooked for achieving optimized fit for bike and rider. Pedals are the point where muscle power is transferred to the bike, and therefore correct positioning of the foot and the leg is essential. Additionally incorrectly positioned feet and legs are the cause of knee complaints, so getting this right improves comfort as well as efficiency. The Ergon PC2 Contour Pedal uniquely addresses all of these factors with its contoured platform, inner-stop guide and narrow q-factor..“

No loss in power. The first ever tool for simple yet precise Installation of cleats On cycling shoes. The critical interface. The energy that goes into cycling is transferred via the pedal, shoe and cleat. Ergonomics in this area plays a massive role. Without an ergonomic setup power and performance will be lost. Comfort will be compromised. Injury could result. Correctly installed cleats are noticeable from the first ride. The Ergon TP1 allows the accurate adjustment of the three axis which are important when installing cleats. The fore/aft position, the stance (Q-Factor) and the foot angle. It is simple, fast and effective. The tool is completed by a small handbook. This is a guide to basic ergonomics of the foot and leg, the biomechanic consequences and a simple step by step manual for using the TP1.

Bladder system for Ergon and non Ergon hydration backpacks. Made from an hygienic, FDA tested Polyurethane. The extremely robust material can be stretched up to 8 times its current length without ripping. The large opening allows easy filling and cleaning, as the entire bladder is reversible. The extra long, taste free hose is specially designed to match perfectly to the extra length required by Ergon backpacks. It features a 90 degree angled bite valve, preventing unwanted kinking. For cleaning and ease of use the hose has a plug and play connector, allowing its removal - this means that the bladder can be filled without removing the hose from your backpack. A major advantage over other systems. An integrated valve prevents liquid escaping when the hose is disconnected. Clip in compatibility with Ergon’s backpacks - the ultimate bladder for your Ergon Motion System.

The Backpack Motion System. Developed for Cyclists. Goodbye Gravity. Nobody really likes carrying a backpack... it is a necessity. It restricts your movement while the weight of the load has an undesired effect on your skeleton, muscles and posture. In a word, it is exhausting. People are dynamic and constantly moving. As you move, any load will be continually transferred to your body and your shoulders will have to move this weight, constantly putting your muscles under strain. The more active you are, the greater the effect. Lower capacity day packs, touring packs and backpacks for athletes are based on an outdated design which ignores the influence of dynamic movement on carrying comfort. As ergonomic specialists, our target is to make backpacks as comfortable as possible. Our revolutionary backpack design – a direct result of our exhaustive studies – allows the upper body to move freely and independantly from the load. The semi-rigid frame transfers the load lower, to the body’s center of gravity, and to a point where the back’s movement is minimal. * Recommendations are based on average people.
To achieve the desired freedom of movement for the upper body it was obvious that the shoulder harness system needed to be isolated from the load resulting in a brilliant and revolutionary solution. Using the central Flink® Link ball joint, in combination with a load bearing frame, Ergon has created a backpack featuring unequaled comfort and freedom of movement. Size Guide Shoulder Straps

There aren‘t many real Legends in the MTB scene, but Dave Wiens is one of the few. For over 20 years he has raced against, and quite often beaten the best in the World. A career that has seen him as the US National Champion twice, he has managed as well as raced for teams. His status was officially recognised in 2002 with his admission to the “Mountain Bike Hall of Fame”. In 2009 the score was settled as Dave fought to win his seventh Leadville 100, against amongst others, Lance Armstrong (who he had beaten in 2008). Finishing second to Lance though is something only Alberto Contador can better! With Wiens’ experience his input to Ergon cannot be quantified.

Performance Comfort Problem: Carpal tunnel syndrome
Solution: Ergon Grip
Ergon GP, GC, GR, GX and GS grips prevent numb fingers, painful hands and forearms â&#x20AC;&#x201C; problems that many riders face. The cause of this is high pressure on the particularly sensitive areas of the palm and an incorrect hand position. Due to their anatomically optimal design, Ergon grips provide a contact surface of 100%. Regular grips only provide a contact surface of approximately 60%. With increased contact surface, pressure is especially
Problem: Ulna nerve irritation
Solution: Ergon Grip
reduced in the area of the ulna nerve, thus decreasing the likelihood of numbness. Furthermore, the anatomic form of the Ergon Performance and Race Series grips corrects your hand position. An incorrect hand position and overloading of the median nerve (a leading cause of carpal tunnel syndrome) are impossible as long as the grip is mounted correctly.
The Size Difference. As hand size is different from person to person, Ergon manufactures the GP and GS ranges in two sizes - Small and Large. This difference is in the diameter of the grip. The reason for this is that a larger hand is better able to grip a larger grip with less stress and effort. This is the same in
reverse for small grip. A smaller hand needs a smaller grip to allow the hand to close around it. Of course, this is all also down to personal preference. More information is available online at: www.ergon-bike.com

New: Grip Compound - Made in Germany Ergon's product development team doesn't only focus on Ergonomics - material research is also a core theme. The demands and testing our products undergo meet those of the automotive industry, and far exceed the industry standard. Ergonomics, Product Design and Engineering - everything is done in-house in Germany. It is from this that successful projects have been born, such as our GreenLab initiative, which explores the use of sustainable materials. For 2011 we quietly introduced what is a major milestone in our development. All grips in the Performance Comfort Series were switched to a new rubber compound. As part of this process 39 rubber compounds were developed and tested. It was worth it, the new material - made in Germany - meets the highest standards, is longer lasting and worldwide is exclusive to Ergon for the bicycle industry.
• Developed and Manufactured in Germany • Extremely high UV resistance - corresponds to automotive standards • Contaminant Free - Only medically approved 'white oil' used in production • All raw materials meet the standards set for use in food production EU (2002/72/EG) • All raw materials meet the purity standards of European Resolution AP(89)1 • Free of PAK - no Phthalates used in production • SGS certification pending (raw material safety certification) • Highest quality standard within the bicycle industry

Performance Comfort GP1 BioKork Grip Core 40% Biowert® grass fibre
Grip Surface Improved feel thanks to cork’s natural properties
Clamp 100% recyclable aluminum
Grip Rubber Compound 40% Cork from certified sustainable forest
Endcap 40% Biowert® grass fibre
The GP1 BioKork provides ultimate ergonomics for the hand just as the rest of Ergon’s Performance Comfort series do, however the unique qualities of cork means that it is now antibacterial and hypoallergenic. Cork’s natural damping qualities also make it an ideal grip material, and its now density mean the resulting grip is a lot lighter. The GP1 BioKork uses 40% cork, sourced from sustainable forests in Portugal which is certified for its ecologically sound production. This ecological theme is continued throughout the rest of the grip. The inner core is plastic reinforced using natural fibre, which make up 40% of its mass. In place of mineral oil, the gel in the palm section of the grip is vegetable oil based. The clamp can also be 100% recycled. It is all a result of Ergon’s “GreenLab” initiative. Available for Rohloff / Nexus and Gripshift.

Packaging Material Innovation 09
Ergon’s GreenLab initiative is about combining the core principles of ergonomics and performance with ecologically aware practices. Introduced in 2010, and for 2011, the GreenLab initiative has played an important role in the Ergon Development Department and the results FSHPO@PGGJDF@ @ of that can be seen starting with the innovations in the last two years. Ergon’s extensive grip assortment is now presented with completely reworked and re-invented packaging. This uses as little material as possible to achieve our aims, and much of the material used is recycled.
The sustainability of the packaging was a key factor, and that the packaging can be recycled after use, and uses as few components as possible, a priority – minimising the environmental impact. The result of this new packaging quest is so innovative that it has already won the coveted German DesignPlus packaging FSHPO@PGGJDF@ @ prize. A further example is the GP1, new GR2 BioKork and GC3 BioKork grips. Once again, it is Ergon setting the standards using the most innovative materials and technology to achieve our aims.

Hans “No Way” Rey:
Ergon Factory Rider “EFR”
“I ride a different bike daily from my R.E.D. DH bike in the Whistler bike park to my all mountain trail bike Rotwild R.E.D. 3 and find the grip so much superior because of it’s ergonomic feel. In wet conditions the shape gives me a better contact to the bars. The end clamps are my guide to the edge of my handle bar which gives me awareness to where my hand position is and security not to come off the bars. Try them out to feel the difference yourself.”
“The GA1 is a phenomenal grip. It gives me the perfect feel for my bike and confidence in any situation. Ergon has perfected the art of making a mountain bike grip.“
