We've been offering our Speedneedle saddle for over 20 years! It was one of the first light weight saddles suitable for everyday use. The low weight (~90g), high comfort, durability and of course unique design, all helped our Tune Speedneedle to quickly become a enduring offering, and not just on the lightweight scene. From its release, up until today, demand has remained constant.
Now we proudly present the new Speedneedle 20TWENTY to celebrate and anticipate the next 20 years. The Speedneedle 20TWENTY is based on the Speedneedle Marathon, though at 130 mm, it’s a little wider. We also kept our proprietary carbon-aramid-mixed struts. What we updated, was the saddle shell and the upholstering, instead of two overlapping pieces of leather/alcantara, the saddle is now covered by two pieces laid parallel along the longest axis to guarantee comfort!
Every single Speedneedle saddle is handmade by Jürgen Mikus. Jürgen runs a small carbon workshop in Leverkusen, Germany. He manufactures specialist carbon products with intense love. The saddle is available with an alcantara upholstery at 99g, or in black leather (114g).
