Product Description
Scratch EVA the first Prologo's ergonomic saddle for women. For years Prologo has studied the anatomy of the female body, working closely with top UCI Women's Worldteam and UCI Women's Continental Team, with one ambitious goal: to ensure that every woman could ride like a true champion.The Prologo Scratch EVA partially reflects the ergonomic T-shape of Scratch M5, a unisex multi-disciplinary saddle that has been already distinguished itself at the highest level on road and off-road, winning in recent years: two Tour de France, the Monuments and several Cross Country World Cup races. However, the anatomical shape of the new Scratch EVA has been redesigned to better fit the female body by moving the saddle's "anatomical center" 5 mm forward. This solution allows the seat to be moved forward, thus increasing the support surface for the female pelvis, which is wider than the male. The result? A new saddle that is still high performance, but even more comfortable, with compact dimensions (250 x 140 mm) that nevertheless allow good freedom of movement for pedaling with maximum efficiency in every position, from the most relaxed to the most aggressive.EVA denomination, in addition to referencing the Italian name of the first woman, also comes from the material of the padding, which is made of EVA foams with variable density according to the different areas of the saddle. In the back, where the ischial bones rest, the padding is thicker and made from a high-density foam that can offer the most support. In contrast, in the middle and front, where the soft tissues rest, there is a thinner padding made from a low-density foam to minimize pressure peaks. This difference in thickness and density creates a channel in the center of the saddle, with a large, extremely soft bearing surface. A targeted design choice to adapt and optimize the seat to the female anatomy, thus eliminating numbness, pain, and avoids reduction of blood circulation. Under the center channel, the Scratch EVA also features Prologo's characteristic Active Base System: a base with a hole in the center, which further relieves pressure and thus increases comfort while pedaling. Finally, the front end of the saddle has been widened by about 10 mm and tilted downward to ensure a good support surface even in those situations, such as steep climbs, where it is necessary to pedal by sitting on the nose.For more performance-oriented bikers who seek a stiff saddle and the ultimate in lightness, this saddle features a Nack (Nano Carbon Fiber) rail composed of carbon fiber, Kevlar and aluminum filaments. A rail already widely adopted by Prologo for all top-of-the-line models, which reduces the overall weight of the saddle.Features: Specific anatomical shape for the female body. Rail: Nack (nano carbon fiber), Ø 7x9.3 mm. Size: 250 x 140 mm. Weight: 183 g. Color: Black.
