Prologo T Gale TT CPC Nack saddle
After having accompanied the best time trial specialists for years, Prologo's Tgale TT saddle gets a revolutionary design, the result of aerodynamic studies and track tests, ready to accompany the most demanding professionals and cyclists in their time trial challenges. Designed using CFD aerodynamic simulation software, the new Tgale was developed and perfected thanks to valuable feedback from great champions such as Filippo Ganna, Tadej Pogacar, Joshua Tarling, Stefan Küng, and Stefan Bissegger. The base, made of injected Long Fibre Carbon, has been thinned by over 5mm and contributes significantly to the reduction of the overall weight of the saddle, which at 234g in the CPC version is 8% lighter than the previous model.
Position
The study of the position of the professionals made it possible to analyse the seating area of the saddle used during time trials, which is in fact shorter than the entire length of the saddle, which must still comply with the dimensions imposed by UCI regulations. From these studies and tests carried out, and in full compliance with the UCI rules, Prologo's intuition and revolution was born: to create an ultra-high performance time trial saddle, with variable padding that is higher at the tip and in the central section, where the cyclist actually positions himself, and reduced to the extreme at the rear.
Tip
The tip of the saddle, which is completely flat, has padding increased by more than 20mm to provide greater support and comfort when pedalling in the maximum thrust position. In the central part, the padding tapers down to 18mm to a cut-out, a ‘step’ in the back that is not actually used by the rider, where the padding is drastically reduced to just a few mm.
Cut-Out
The cut-out in the padding between the front and rear sections achieved a twofold objective. A reduction in the overall weight of the saddle and improved aerodynamics due to the slimmer rear shape, which directs airflow from the rider's back parallel to the road.
CPC technology
To further increase performance, Tgale TT uses CPC (Connect Power Control) technology, the patented system with three-dimensional conical nano-structures that improve grip, absorb vibrations and maximise the cyclist's stability, helping him or her to maintain the maximum aerodynamic position for as long as possible.
