BioLogic™ Velvet Saddle and I-Beam™ Technology
The traditional saddle rail design has been with us for decades, and while
it works well enough, it has distinct limitations when it comes
to strength, weight, and ease of adjustment. SDG, a
leader in the performance saddle market, discovered
a way to replace traditional saddle rails with a single
carbon-composite beam. They originally developed the
I-Beam™ system to meet the needs of hard-core free
riders who were always breaking their railed saddles but
SDG discovered a few unexpected benefits: a dramatic
reduction in weight, 200% more fore-aft adjustment to fit a
wider range of riders, and super simple one bolt adjustment. Who
would have expected that an I-Beam comfort saddle would weigh less than a super
skinny racing saddle with Ti rails? We collaborated with SDG to develop a series of
custom saddles and seat posts exclusively for Dahon. The result? The BelAir FX and
BioLogic™ Velvet saddles and Super-Oversize SDG I-Beam Pro and Comp seat posts.
