Item added to your cart IDENTIFY A PROBLEM, SOLVE IT WITH DESIGN, VALIDATE IT WITH SCIENCE It all started in 1997 when we solved erectile dysfunction issues facing male cyclists with the Body Geometry saddle—the first ergonomically designed, scientifically tested saddle in history. Since then, we’ve been obsessed with ensuring the contact points where female, male, and non-binary riders become one with their bikes never hurt. If spending 25 years perfecting the connection between bike and body is mad, consider us crazy. There’s a madness to our method.

BODY GEOMETRY SADDLES & CHAMOIS BODY GEOMETRY SADDLES Our saddles come in multiple widths, ergonomic shapes, and with cutouts to support your weight with your sit bones, not soft tissue. Innovative materials manage soft tissue pressure, protecting blood flow and nerves to safeguard male riders from erectile dysfunction and women from pain and numbness in the labia. TRADITIONAL SADDLES Saddles that don’t properly support sit bones or feature shapes and materials that reduce soft tissue pressure can compress nerves and limit blood flow, creating pain and real medical issues in the last places anyone wants medical issues. PRESSURE MAPPING PERFORMANCE We use pressure mapping to validate our solutions are providing real rider benefit and are backed by real science. These pressure maps show how different Body Geometry saddles solve rider problems, from soft tissue pressure to sit bone pain, in any riding position. PERFORMANCE RIDING POSITION: MIMIC VS. TRADITIONAL SADDLE Our saddles use innovative shapes and materials like MIMIC to dramatically reduce pressure in soft tissue, seen here as blue. Designed to solve soft-tissue issues for women, MIMIC has been widely adopted by men as well. The traditional saddle’s rounded nose creates high pressure in soft tissue, seen here as red and yellow, resulting in pain, scar tissue, and real medical issues like erectile dysfunction and swelling and numbness in the labia.

SIT BONE COMFORT: MIRROR VS. TRADITIONAL FOAM By 3D printing Mirror saddles from a liquid polymer, we can infinitely tune density in a way impossible with foam, creating a hammock effect for unprecedented sit bone support. Traditional foam performance saddles are thin and high density, creating painful pressure points under the sit bones, even with a proper riding position supported by the skeletal system.

WIDTHS AND SHAPES THAT EMBRACE YOUR UNIQUE BODY Our saddles come in multiple widths—from 130mm to 245mm—and multiple shapes to match any anatomy, ensuring support and pain-free riding. Don’t know what width or shape is right for you? Specialized retailers can measure your sit bones and recommend the correct width and shape. MATERIAL INNOVATION FOR RIDER BENEFIT BODY GEOMETRY SHOES & FOOTBEDS With a 1.5mm built-in Varus Wedge, Body Geometry shoes stabilize the natural movement of your forefoot and improve foot, knee, and hip alignment, which increases power output and adds an average of 10 seconds to your time to exhaustion during maximum efforts. LONGITUDINAL ARCH The foot is built like a leaf spring. Great for running. Bad for riding. Body Geometry shoes are designed with patented, molded arch support in the outsole to create a rigid structure, which is paired with customizable footbeds to prevent foot collapse and increase power. METATARSAL BUTTON Ready to banish hot spots and numbness from your ride? By lifting and separating the bones of the forefoot, our Metatarsal Button prevents impinging and compressing nearby nerves and arteries, so you can say goodbye to the foot issues that used to plague riders. BODY GEOMETRY IN THE DIRT BODY GEOMETRY GLOVES ULNAR PROTECTION Hands getting fatigued and going numb on long rides? Body Geometry Gel gloves disperse pressure by padding the ulnar nerve. So now, you can ride longer and with a stronger grip. ARTERIAL CIRCULATION The Equalizer Pad in our Grail gloves maintains the natural shape of your palm, so it doesn’t flatten out as you grip the bars. This protects blood flow to all of your digits and creates an extremely confident connection to your bike.
