With the "Vector Evo Rail" system, the cult brand Ritchey is launching a new saddle that combines comfort with low weight and the necessary stability. The monorail principle is not new to saddles, but Ritchey developed the idea further and installed the "Vector Wing" at the end of the frame. This combination is said to work like a "carefully tuned suspension system," according to the Americans. The Scott-Swisspower Team World Cup riders have been using the system since the beginning of the season and seem to be delighted. The design is simple and durable. Above all, it should be very robust and thus reduce the "sitting through" that often occurs with similar lightweight systems. The versatile "LINK" seat post was developed to match the "Vector Evo Rail". These were developed in collaboration with the Stevens, Canyon and Scott ProTour teams. The post is said to have 15 percent more flexibility without sacrificing torsional stiffness. The complete system will be presented to the public for the first time at the Eurobike in Friedrichshafen.
