Better performance thanks to reduced pressure on the seat area—the SR Tri Men Mid channels your power where it belongs—onto the road. Together with top triathletes such as Jan Frodeno (three-time Ironman Hawaii and Olympic champion) and Jan Stratmann (3rd place at the 2023 Ironman 70.3 World Championship), Ergon’s development team has created the revolutionary Power Position concept.
Some riders tend to place the load in the aero position more toward the center of the saddle and therefore need a special shape to prevent muscle fatigue and maximize power output. The ergonomically optimized V-shape design of the SR Tri Men Mid is specifically engineered for the demands of triathlon.
The SR Tri Men Mid is designed for triathletes who tilt their pelvis less in the aero position, thereby shifting their center of gravity to the middle of the saddle. This means you need a narrower saddle nose that has a longer length than what riders who prefer the front position require. This effectively prevents fatigue in the back muscles and also relieves pressure on the muscle chains you need for running. That means: more power on the bike and a better start to the run!
The SR Tri Men’s padding is made of durable Orthopedic Comfort Foam and is precisely engineered to meet the demands of long-duration triathlon exertion. It’s firm enough to prevent energy loss from overly soft padding, while still providing sufficient cushioning to effectively reduce strain.
The more upright pelvic position in the Mid Position requires a narrower and longer nose for optimal freedom of movement. This Y-shape effectively prevents fatigue of the back muscles and, in combination with the ergonomic padding and relief channel, ensures optimal protection of the sensitive genital area.
On all SR Tri saddles, the Biomechanical Reference Line (BMR line) is marked on the saddle surface. This indicates the saddle’s meridian—the point where the saddle is exactly 75 millimeters wide. The BMR line serves as a reference point for correctly adjusting height, seating position, and tilt, as well as ensuring the correct saddle-nose distance. The BMR line is also a key reference point for precise adjustments in our Road Fitting Box.
The SR Tri Men saddle is Made in Europe! This guarantees only the best workmanship and material quality. Shipping distances are short—and that’s good for you!
During long rides in the aero position, pressure on the sensitive perineal area remains very high for extended periods, thereby reducing blood flow to the genital area. This can lead to numbness and, in the worst case, erectile dysfunction. The SR Tri Men is equipped with an especially wide and deep relief channel that guarantees effective pressure relief and thus reliably prevents discomfort.
