Prologo Scratch NDR Tirox saddle
Designed to face all kinds of climbs
Prologo Scratch NDR the ergonomic saddle specifically for Cross Country and Marathon riding, born out from close collaboration with professionals of 8 MTB teams technical supported by Prologo, the Scratch NDR is the off-road evolution of the already established Scratch M5. A new saddle with racing DNA, designed specifically to compete and win in Cross Country and Marathon races at the highest level. The Scratch NDR inherits from the Scratch family the compact dimensions (250mm x 140mm) and the Multi Sector System technology: different mapped and separated zones, with specific features and functions for XC and Marathon disciplines. The two lateral-posterior sections, are designed to provide more stability and comfort when pedaling in a backward position on long climbs. The variable-density EVA foam padding is 3mm thicker in the rear section to provide maximum support. The cover of these sections is completely smooth, making it easier to move out of the saddle. The innovative center-front section, on the other hand, is specially designed to tackle the steepest and most technical uphill passages, thanks to a large flat surface that provides a comfortable base of support even when it is necessary to pedal on the nose of the saddle. The cover features a horizontally textured Grip Cover in this section to maximize grip and help maintain a forward position on the saddle.
Anatomical shape for off-road disciplines
The anatomical shape of the new Scratch NDR has been redesigned to suit off-road disciplines, setting back the "anatomical center" by 5mm to increases the biker's freedom of movement, allowing him or her to easily vary the position in the saddle according to the type of trail being tackled.
Closed saddle with Active Base System
In order to provide a more coveted, flatter bearing surface in the center-front section, the Scratch NDR does not have a central drain channel. A solution that makes the saddle more comfortable when pedaling on the toe and offers more protection against any dirt and mud from the rear wheel. The base of the new saddle is made of long-fiber carbon, with the characteristic Active Base System: a hole, underneath the padding, that allows for additional pressure relief and thus increases comfort while pedaling.
Tirox Version
For those looking for more comfort, however, a second version is available, weighing 217gr, with TiroX rail made of light alloy steel, a material with an excellent balance between weight and strength, giving the saddle less stiffness and superior vibration absorption.
