Product Information

Full details

The PRO Stealth 3D Team Saddle is designed for competitive adult road cyclists seeking an optimized balance of comfort and performance. Its key benefit lies in advanced 3D-printed padding across four mesh zones, providing tailored support and pressure relief for aggressive riding positions. A potential caveat is its race-specific, short-nose design, which may not suit all riding styles or anatomies. This saddle integrates 3D EPU padding, a short-nose Stealth profile, a carbon-reinforced base, and full carbon rails for a lightweight, stiff, and comfortable platform engineered for speed.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of the 3D-printed padding?

The 3D-printed EPU padding allows for highly customized cushioning across specific zones, precisely engineered using pressure mapping data to provide targeted support and pressure relief, enhancing comfort during intense rides.

Is this saddle suitable for long-distance endurance riding?

Yes, the advanced 3D padding and anatomic cut-out are designed to improve comfort on long rides by reducing pressure points and enhancing support, making it suitable for endurance cyclists who adopt an aggressive position.

What does 'Stealth short-nose profile' mean for riding position?

The short-nose design encourages and supports a more aggressive, aerodynamic riding posture, allowing cyclists to maintain a forward lean and lower position on the handlebars for extended periods.

How do I know which width (142mm or 152mm) is right for me?

Saddle width depends on individual sit bone width and riding position. While 142mm is common for many riders, the 152mm width may offer more support for those with wider sit bones or who prefer a more stable perch, especially in an aggressive stance. Professional bike fitting is recommended for precise sizing.

Can I use this saddle with any seatpost?

No, this saddle is equipped with full carbon rails (7x9mm or 7x10mm oval) and requires a seatpost clamp specifically designed to accommodate these dimensions to prevent damage and ensure secure mounting.

What maintenance is required for the 3D-printed padding?

The 3D-printed EPU padding requires simple care. Cleaning with a soft, damp cloth is sufficient. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could degrade the material.

What is the warranty period for the PRO Stealth 3D Team Saddle?

Please refer to the official PRO Components warranty information for specific details on the warranty period and coverage. Generally, high-performance components come with a manufacturer's warranty against defects.

Troubleshooting

Saddle feels uncomfortable after initial setup.

Minor discomfort is common with new saddles. Make small, incremental adjustments (1-2mm fore/aft, 0.5-degree tilt) over several rides. Ensure your cleat position and overall bike fit are optimized.

Creaking or noise from the saddle area.

Check that the saddle clamp bolts are properly tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification for carbon rails. Ensure the saddle rails are clean and free of debris where they meet the clamp.

Difficulty fitting the saddle to the seatpost.

Verify that your seatpost clamp is designed for oval carbon rails (typically 7x9mm or 7x10mm). Ensure you are using the correct clamping mechanism for your specific seatpost model.

Concerns about carbon rail durability.

Always use a seatpost clamp specifically designed for carbon rails and follow torque specifications. Avoid overtightening. Regular inspection for micro-fractures or damage is recommended.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional comfort due to 3D-printed, pressure-mapped padding.
  • Lightweight construction with carbon-reinforced base and carbon rails.
  • Promotes an aggressive, aerodynamic riding position.
  • Durable and stiff platform for efficient power transfer.
  • Anatomic cut-out enhances long-ride comfort.

Cons

  • Short-nose design may not suit all riders or riding styles.
  • Premium materials and technology come at a higher price point.
  • Requires a compatible seatpost clamp for carbon rails.
  • May require an adjustment period for riders new to short-nose saddles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Compatibility Check: Ensure your seatpost is compatible with full carbon rails (7x9mm or 7x10mm, depending on clamp type). Many modern seatposts have specific clamps for carbon rails.
  2. Mounting: Carefully install the saddle onto your seatpost clamp. Avoid over-tightening screws, especially when clamping carbon rails, to prevent damage.
  3. Positioning: Adjust the saddle fore/aft position and tilt (angle) to achieve optimal comfort and pedaling efficiency. Small adjustments (1-2mm or 0.5 degrees) can make a significant difference.

Compatibility:

  • Seatpost Rails: Compatible with seatposts designed for 7x9mm or 7x10mm oval carbon saddle rails.
  • Riding Style: Best suited for competitive road cyclists, time trialists, and riders who favor aggressive, aerodynamic positions.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the saddle surface. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, which can damage the EPU padding and carbon materials.
  • Storage: Store the bike in a dry place. Prolonged exposure to extreme heat or moisture is not recommended.
  • Inspection: Periodically check the saddle and seatpost clamp for any signs of wear or damage, especially to the carbon rails.
