Selle Repente Artax GLM Carbon Saddle Tape Combo – Brown

Description

For the ultimate matching finish to your gravel bike, the Selle Repente saddle and bartape bundle is for you.

Artax GLM saddle is the 142-mm wide version of Artax GL, the lightweight and versatile saddle that Repente has dedicated to the gravel enthusiasts and to the off-road in general.

The anatomical shape of the rear and the pressure relief channel, designed to avoid numbness and pain on the uneven grounds, are present as in the 132-mm wide Artax GL.

Another feature in common with the two saddles is the square shape of the front padding, that ensures improved support when pedalling in the “seat tip” sitting position.

One of the problems that may occur with a wide saddle is that the dimension of the saddle can hinder the free movement of the hip joint, with consequences for the comfort and the effectiveness of the pedal stroke. We’ve overcome this inconvenience by shaping the silhouette of the saddle so that no hindrance is created to the movement of the joint and leg (ERGO SHAPE).

The proprietary RLS system allows the saddle cover to be easily replaced without having to change the base. By the way, the coupled double bases have turned out to offer a better absorption of the vertical vibrations transmitted by the ground.

The differential section rail is made of UD carbon fibre. The shell is built us-ing LCF (Long Carbon Fibers) technology, which makes the saddle just rigid enough and non-deformable over time.

The padding is made of Eva, a very light material, made thicker in the most delicate support points to maximise comfort even on bumpy terrain, for those who prefer a more upright sitting position and those who often use the lower part of the handlebars.

Coating: non-slip cover material, which is just as effective when wet.

Corium bar tape is a superior quality handlebar tape inspired by the color of leather (“corium” in Latin) and dedicated to those who want to equip their bicycle with a classic style or oriented to the colors of nature.

In combination with the Artax GLM saddle it represents a touch of refinement and originality, especially in the settings with the typical colors of gravel cycling. The two resistant expander caps with external resin finish and the fastening adhesives on the upper end of the tapes are also perfectly matching.

Corium is the result of the combination of three types of materials, selected for their technical characteristics: the grip of the water-based polyurethane combines with the resistance of the microfiber and the high shock- absorbing power of EVA.

The surface layer of the tape is washable and abrasion resistant.

The graphics of the package, made of recyclable cardboard, take up the essential and “old style” imprint that Repente was inspired by in designing this handlebar tape, designed for lovers of “good cycling”.

Corium is produced without the use of solvents and with non-allergenic materials.
