Cycling is one of the few ways to get around where different parts of your body work together with different parts of the bike to make a single unit. Even small changes can have an effect on the body and how well travel works. So, the bicycle should be matched to the body as a whole.

Ergon, designers and manufacturers of comfortable ergonomic grips, saddles and more, apply these ergonomic principles:

1 Support
The design of the product takes on the form of your body and leads to a better distribution of opposing forces. Unpleasant pressure points and related discomforts are avoided.

2 Comfort
The physiological adaptation of ergonomic products to your body makes it exceptionally user-friendly and comfortable.

3 Optimization
Your joint position, range of motion, and overall posture can be optimized. Misalignments and the associated pains will be corrected or prevented.

4 Control
Different materials with specific properties on the various contact points of the bicycle optimize your contact to the bicycle, thus enabling a better control.
