San Marco GND Racing MTB Saddle
The design and ergonomics of the new GND have been conceived with the goal to achieve the perfect mix of pressure relief and support zones. The front is wider and softer than other saddles in the collection, making for great comfort even in aggressive positions, uphill for example. Design, ergonomics and rear saddle width provide perfect support for the cyclist even when not pedalling hard.
Characteristics and design make the GND saddle particularly suitable for off-road cycling. This saddle has an open-shell structure to relieve pressure, combined with full-fit (no hole) padding to prevent mud from dirtying bibs. Dual-density padding to optimise support zones (front and rear), completed by two “shock-absorber” inserts to reduce vibration generated by off-road terrain and transmitted from the bike to cyclist.
GND-E comes with the addition of GEL inserts between padding and cover. This maximises comfort during long rides and is particularly suitable for use with E-Bikes. GND is also covered with a double material: resistant “microfeel” for the support zones and two areas in “woven” to guarantee maximum resistance to abrasion and scratching on the sides of the saddle itself.
Xsilite Rails
It is a material with a high percentage of silicon with particles of titanium and carbon. Light and strong, it turns out to be resistant to all weather conditions. The process through the stealth technology ensures a better strength against fatigue stress.
Carbon Fibre Reinforced Shell
Nylon with high properties, enriched with a high proportion of long carbon fibre, in order to reinforce the characteristics of rigidity, stiffness and durability without compromising the weight. Design includes an open shell design fitted with additional foam support to keep dirt or mud from coming through the gap.
Biofoam
Biodynamic structure that follows the movements of the pelvis during pedalling, guarantees comfort, reduced weight, lasting resistance and ideal support. The “closed cells” surface ensures water is repelled from the padding.
Microfeel Cover
Breathable and hard wearing cover. It is lighter than traditional materials and less deformable. Anti-skid effect with an extraordinary grip on the saddle. Biocompatible material.
Shock Absorber Inserts
Extra comfort and support is added with our new integrated elastomer technology.

Steve Great saddle, very comfortable and lightweight. I now have 3 of the San Marco GND’s for my mountain and road bikes. The racing version has titanium coloured rails not black as shown in picture.
Norberto Excellent saddle for the price. Very comfortable and lightweight.
