Prologo CPC Zero C3 PAS Saddle - Carbon Rails

The Zero C3 is the Prologo's flagship road saddle featuring the best of saddle technology. The full carbon base and rails offer lightweight and unrivalled stiffness whilst maintaing shock absorbtion qualities critical to the reduction of fatigue. The shape is flat ideal for aggressive positions in short to medium distance rides. This is an out and out race saddle or for those that ride at race speeds and will settle for no less than the best.

Technologies:

PAS: Perineal Area System: this special cutaway technology eliminates pressure spikes and numbness in the pelvic area. Unlike regular cut-outs the particular shape of the foam mold leaves the base intact and ensures that the saddle remains durable over time. This ensures a continuity of the pelvis movement even after many kilometres. The result is comfort and performance over long rides. It’s compatible with both male and female anatomies.

CPC: Connect Power Control: Prologo patented technology the specially designed CPC surface features 3D polymer chains arranged for maximum benefit. This includes optimum grip shock absorption and air cooling. Furthermore it enhances blood flow through massaging action reducing numbness and tendon related discomfort. In turn this reduces fatigue.

Nack: Nano carbon fibre rail. In addition to the carbon Kevlar and aluminium filaments are integrated into the seat-post clamp area and are arranged in a production process called Braided Carbon Rail (BCR) to give strength. Nack rails provide the optimal weight and durability required of a performance saddle. It has 7x9mm oval rails.

ESD: Ergo Shape Design: This is a refined saddle shape developed as a result of biomechanical studies done by Prologo over several years. ESD saddles feature a slender front area and a short rear area that quickly reaches maximum width. This permits a round pedal stroke allowing the rider to maintain a natural position. The legs of the cyclist have more space during all phases of the pedal stroke reducing friction and increasing alignment and performance. Finally the opening swift of the rear part of the saddle helps the rider to find the correct support and support of the ischial bones. This prevents sliding forward and any rotation of the pelvis.

Active Density: This is the combination of different densities of foam and different rigidities in the base of the saddle for optimal comfort and performance. At the rear the foam has a higher density for stability. In the centre the foam is of lower density giving maximum comfort to the perineal area where pressure peaks can occur. In the tip of the saddle the foam has a lower density which allows a pressure reduction during maximum thrust. The Carbon Fibre Injection base also has variable rigidity providing stability at the rear and comfort in the middle and front. Furthermore the special openings in the hull make the base of the saddle more elastic to provide extra comfort when pedalling in a relaxed position whilst providing great stiffness during the phases of maximum thrust.
