Ritchey repositions the saddle

The pros of the Scott Swissspower team have long been riding it: with the Vector Evo Rail saddle, component guru Ritchey wants to revolutionize lightweight, comfort and durability. Ritchey is also launching a new seatpost for the 2014 season to go with it.

For the 2014 model year, anyone can equip themselves with the equipment of the Scott Swisspower team riders. Ritchey's "Vector Evo" saddle uses a new substructure. The system is more than just another "monorail" design, as the new saddle frame works like a carefully adjusted suspension system. Ritchey's marketing man Roland Breilinger reports: "It processes the loads via the rail itself as well as with the Vector Wing at the end of the frame. It also allows a certain amount of lateral flex associated with pedaling movements and eliminates stress peaks on long rides."

At the same time, Ritchey presents new, variable seatposts: With the "WCS Link" and "WCS Carbon Link" posts, there are three different adapter clamp heads.
There is, of course, an adapter that fits the above, in-house saddle. There is also a clamping head that harmonizes with the Monolink frame of Selle Italia's saddles. With the standard adapter, all common saddle racks are then suitable and the post offers 10 or 20 millimetre offset.
