What makes racing and MTB saddles different from other saddles?

Bike saddles come in many different types. There are specific bike saddles for women, for example, and there are saddles for men that have a cut-out in the middle. They are robust and the shape offers ideal support for the buttocks. During cycling and mountain biking, the buttocks are in constant motion. A perfect fit is essential for sufficient comfort. The padding of MTB saddles is usually slightly softer than that of road bike saddles.

Are there differences between women's and men's saddles?

Women and men differ in terms of body build. It is therefore particularly important to choose a saddle that suits your circumstances. Saddle shape and material are different in saddles for road bikes and mountain bikes for women than for men.
