Short, yet wide nose and with added texture on the rear of the saddle for ultimate control - the Chicane Edge is the challengers saddle it is nearly identical to the Chicane, but with a slightly less aggressive slope from back to front. It is designed for riders who locked-in in the loose conditions and are willing to push the limits in the corners. When the course gets challenging expect as much from your contact points on the bike as your skills at driving it. It is for riders who prefer an aggressive road, gravel or XC MTB riding position. It is for those who are always pushing the limit in the corners and adverse conditions, and demand that their equipment performs at the same level they do. If you love an aggressive riding posture and are tired of saddles that feel slippery this is the saddle for you. Large Cut Out, More Comfort The Chicane Edge is a racers saddle, that demands it performs just as well in adverse conditions as it does in normal conditions. It utilizes a large cut out from back to front to give the rider the ability to get as aero as possible with full pelvic rotation without sacrificing comfort in the perineum area. It features a medium platform in the rear section of the saddle to allow the rider to lock-in and put down maximum power. The rolled edges on the interior and edges of the Chicane Edge allow for those who are pushing speed to the limits to have full leg extension through the pedal stroke and reduce the amount pressure the wider sit-bone area of the saddle creates with the hamstring muscle. Eco-Friendly It is at Smanie’s core to always be pushing the limits as to what we can do to make our saddles more environmentally friendly. We start by producing all of our products from recycled materials. That includes our covers, foam, bases, rails, and even our packaging.

It is short, yet gently slopped enough from back to front that the profile of the saddle creates a clear pocket for the sit-bones to rest. It takes the thought out of which position is best a powerful riding posture by creating a clearly defined due to the gentle slope from the rear to the middle section of the saddle. Yet, it's wide nose and medium platform on the back allows for micro adjustments forward or backward in rider position mid-ride to offer comfort as the rider moves about the saddle.

Modern Look, More Comfort The Chicane Edge has a classic understated look that makes it clear choice for anyone that wants to keep the focus on the bike itself. Black saddle, black graphics keep the saddle simple yet stylish. That doesn't mean the saddle isn't packed with features. The rail bend purposefully gives the saddle some of the most forward or aft rail adjustment of any saddle on the market. The understated graphics are purposefully placed to add just a bit of grip to the saddle without going overboard. The unique suspended base design keeps the saddle stiff enough to allow for optimal power transfer into the pedals, yet allow for just enough give to dampen road, gravel and trail vibrations.
