Discover the ultimate solution to saddle discomfort with the ISM PL 1.1, a masterclass in ergonomic design and plush performance for both road and mountain biking. Engineered to transform your ride, this saddle allows you to focus on the power and the passion of cycling, not the pain. The PL 1.1 is the perfect upgrade for any male cyclist seeking to maximize comfort on long training days, challenging climbs, and competitive events.
Revolutionary Comfort by Design
The core philosophy behind the ISM PL 1.1 is a revolutionary departure from traditional saddle design. Like all ISM saddles, the PL 1.1 is nose-less and anatomically engineered to remove all pressure from your sensitive soft tissue areas. This patented design ensures maximum blood flow and eliminates the risk of genital numbness, creating a healthier, more enjoyable, and ultimately more powerful ride. Say goodbye to post-ride soreness and hello to consistent comfort, lap after lap, mile after mile. This saddle empowers you to stay in an aggressive, forward-leaning position for longer periods without the usual discomfort, translating directly into improved performance.
Performance-Tuned Shape and Padding
The 2016 PL 1.1 builds upon the legacy of the highly popular Prologue saddle, now featuring updated, sleek racing graphics. As part of the Performance Long family, it boasts a full 270mm length that provides ample room for fore-aft movement. This allows you to easily adjust your body position, whether you´re shifting forward for an aerodynamic tuck on the flats or sliding back on the generous 135mm rear section for more power and leverage while climbing. This wider rear platform offers substantial support, making it ideal for riders who tend to rotate back during seated climbing efforts on their mountain or road bike.
What sets the PL 1.1 apart from the PL 1.0 is its increased level of padding. It features the most cushioning available in the Performance Long category, making it an exceptional choice for cyclists riding in thin triathlon-style shorts or for any rider who simply desires a softer, more forgiving ride. This enhanced padding expertly absorbs road and trail vibrations, reducing fatigue and allowing you to extend your endurance.
Versatility for Every Discipline
Don´t let the plush comfort fool you—the PL 1.1 is a true performance saddle. Its versatile design makes it a top choice for a wide range of disciplines. It is commonly used and highly recommended for both high-mileage road bikes and rugged, technical mountain bikes. The durable Chromoly rails provide a strong and reliable foundation, ensuring this saddle can withstand the rigors of serious training and racing, no matter the terrain.
