Prologo launches Dimension EVA and Scratch EVA saddles, high-performance saddles dedicated to women

Prologo saddles have always been designed to best meet the needs of all cyclists, offering a wide range of unisex models suitable for both men and women. However, the constant search for more performing products and the increasing attention paid to the specific requirements of women’s cycling, both professional and non-professional, have led Prologo to create a line of ergonomic saddles entirely dedicated to women.

From close collaboration with women’s teams and thanks to feedback from the best road and mountain bike cyclists, the EVA saddle line was born, designed to meet the specific anatomical needs of all women, from World Tour champions aiming for maximum performance, to amateur cyclists, looking for maximum comfort even for rides of all durations.

Dimension EVA
The new Dimension EVA features the characteristic “V-shape” of the Dimension family, an ergonomic shape designed to promote an advanced and aerodynamic riding position, ideal for maximizing pedal thrust.

Compared to the unisex Dimension 143 model, the EVA version has been completely redesigned to better adapt to female anatomy, while maintaining a compact length of 245 mm.

The new women’s design features a width of 156 mm to increase the support surface for the female pelvis. The anatomical center has been moved back by 5 mm to facilitate the positioning of the ischial bones in the rear part of the saddle where the new padding, with lower density foams and an increased thickness of 8 mm, offers maximum support to increase comfort and stability.

The central PAS channel is 18% wider, with increased padding on the sides to better distribute and reduce pressure on female genitalia.
The 13% wider saddle nose is also designed to increase comfort even in the most advanced and aerodynamic pedaling positions.

The graphics of the Dimension EVA are characterized by thin lines that highlight the V-shape of the saddle, with blue details that recall the EVA logo, giving a touch of style and recognizability to the entire Prologo women’s line.

Scratch EVA
The new Scratch EVA is based on the T-shape of the Scratch M5, a unisex multi-disciplinary saddle that has already distinguished itself at the highest level on road and off-road.

The anatomical shape of the new Scratch EVA has been redesigned to better adapt to the female body, with the anatomical center shifted 5 mm forward compared to the unisex model. This solution has made it possible to increase the support surface for the female pelvis, making the saddle still very performing, but even more comfortable.

The compact dimensions (245 mm x 140 mm), common to the unisex model, allow good freedom of movement to pedal with maximum efficiency in all positions, from the most relaxed to the most aggressive.

The padding is made of EVA foam of variable density according to the different areas of the saddle. At the rear, where the ischial bones rest, the padding is 5 mm thicker and consists of high-density foam to offer the best possible support.

In the middle and front, where soft tissues rest, the padding is thinner and consists of low-density foam to minimize pressure peaks in sensitive areas.

The difference in thickness and density creates a channel in the center of the saddle, 50% deeper than the unisex model, with a large, extremely soft contact surface. A targeted design choice to adapt and optimize the seat to female anatomy, thus eliminating numbness and possible pain.

Finally, the saddle nose has been widened by 2 mm and tilted downwards to ensure a good support surface even in situations where it is necessary to pedal further forward, such as on steep climbs.

Under the central channel, the Scratch EVA features Prologo’s characteristic Active Base System: a base with a hole in the center, which further relieves pressure and thus increases pedaling comfort.

Rails
For the most performing cyclists who are looking for a stiff saddle and maximum lightness, the EVA models are available in a version with Nack (Nano Carbon Fiber) rails composed of carbon fiber, Kevlar and aluminum filaments. Rails adopted by Prologo for all high-end models, which reduce the weight of the Dimension EVA to 183 g and the Scratch EVA to 178 g.

For those looking for greater comfort, there are versions with TiroX rails in lightweight alloy steel, a material with an excellent balance between weight and strength, which gives the saddle less stiffness and superior vibration absorption. The weight of the models with Tirox rails is 277 g for the Dimension EVA and 226 g for the Scratch EVA.
