Product Information
Full details
The Burgtec The Cloud MK2 Saddle is an ideal upgrade for Enduro and trail riders seeking a balance between long-ride comfort and agile bike handling. Its thoughtful ergonomic shaping provides focused support for your sit bones and improves blood flow, though riders who prefer a wider, highly cushioned platform may find the firm density of this saddle more performance-oriented than plush.

FAQs
Is this saddle suitable for downhill racing?
Yes, the narrow profile and dipped nose make it very popular for downhill and Enduro riders who need to move around the bike frequently.
Does the saddle come with titanium or steel rails?
The MK2 generally features high-strength alloy rails designed to balance weight and durability for Enduro use.
How do I measure if this will fit my sit bones?
While the MK2 is designed to accommodate a wide range of riders, you can visit a local shop for a sit-bone measurement tool if you have specific ergonomic concerns.
Can I use this on a road bike?
While it can be mounted to a road bike, it is specifically optimized for off-road posture and technical trail geometry.
Is the material waterproof?
The cover is water-resistant, but like all saddles, it should be dried thoroughly after washing to maintain the longevity of the internal padding.
Does the central relief groove affect structural strength?
No, the shell has been reinforced to ensure the relief channel does not compromise the overall integrity or lifespan of the saddle.
Troubleshooting
Saddle feels uncomfortable during initial rides
Adjust the angle by 1-2 degrees. Often, micro-adjustments to the tilt are required to align the pressure points with your specific sit bone width.
Visible wear on the saddle rails
Check your seatpost clamp for burrs or sharp edges and ensure you are not exceeding the recommended torque settings during installation.
Surface feels slippery in wet conditions
Ensure the saddle surface is cleaned of any residual chain lube or trail oils, which can sometimes transfer from gear to the saddle cover.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Reduces numbness on long rides through the central relief groove
- Narrow design allows for excellent bike control and movement
- Dipped nose prevents shorts from catching during technical riding
- Balances structural weight with necessary comfort for gravity racing
Cons
- The firm padding density may feel too stiff for recreational riders who prefer 'couch-like' cushioning
- Black colorway may show dust and trail debris more clearly than lighter options
- Not intended for ultra-distance road cycling applications
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, install the saddle using a standard two-bolt seatpost clamp. Start by setting the saddle rails to a neutral horizontal position. If you experience pressure on your hands, tilt the nose slightly upward, or tilt it downward if you feel excessive pelvic pressure. Ensure the bolt torque matches your seatpost manufacturer's specifications to avoid damage to the rails. For care, wipe down the saddle after muddy rides using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid high-pressure water sprayers as they can force moisture into the foam interface, which may degrade the internal padding structure over time.
