The fixie saddle is a key fixed bike part in the comfort you will have on your bike. Indeed, the fact that the transmission by the fixed gear requires the cyclist to constantly pedal to move forward, slow down and brake requires a suitable type of fixie saddle.
Choosing a fixie saddle :
A fixie saddle is domed on top, narrow and short. It can be slightly raised at the rear for better support, its shell is relatively rigid in order to withstand a high pedaling frequency.
There is no strict rule in the choice of a fixie saddle, in fact each cyclist has their own ergonomics, their own points of support. On the other hand, the shape, the covering and the padding are criteria which should allow you to converge towards a solution. Indeed, the shape of a leather saddle will tend to shape itself to the anatomy of the cyclist who uses it after many kilometers, on the other hand a imitation or sky covering will keep the same shape.
If you are using cycling shorts with a chamois which will tend to absorb vibrations, in this case it will be in your best interest to choose a firm shell and saddle padding.
Fixie saddle designers and manufacturers offer numerous models with sometimes bright colors, coverings with different textures, or an appearance reminiscent of the oldest models. Here are the most popular brands: Extra+, Selle Italia, San Marco, Selle Monte Grappa and Brooks England which designs and manufactures leather saddles by hand with know-how inherited from long experience since its creation in beginning of the twentieth century.
Compatibility of a fixie saddle :
The attachment of a fixie saddle consists of two rails that assemble into a saddle carriage on a seat post. This type of assembly is standard for road bikes, mountain bikes, gravel bikes, urban bikes, fixie and single speed bikes, etc. The fixie saddle is thus adjustable in inclination and length in relation to the handlebars. Its assembly and adjustment are simple and only require a few minutes.
Maintenance of a fixie saddle :
The fixie saddle is subject to numerous mechanical stresses, friction and heating, so that it maintains its integrity, it is recommended to clean it with soapy water without pressure.
A fixie saddle whose foam is packed in the center, or whose shell is cracked is at the end of its life, it is necessary to replace it, likewise if it is deformed following a fall its change is imperative because it could unbalance your points of support and therefore have a negative impact on your pelvis.
To obtain the best compromise between comfort and fit, we recommend positioning the top of your fixie saddle horizontally, parallel to the ground.
