Type T Saddle (Designed for Road Riders with Wider Sit Bones)
The Type T saddle, the 2019 model of the Tenace Saddle, is specifically designed for road riders with wider sit bones (ischial tuberosity). It features:
155mm rear width for a larger contact area, ideal for upright riders or those not in aggressive aero positions.
Narrow nose design for better thigh clearance and reduced chafing, helping riders with thicker upper thighs.
Deep relief trough in the nose to provide comfort for sensitive areas, with a 50mm wide nose for better tissue relief.
Slightly nose-high installation helps distribute weight to the sit bones, reducing pressure on hands, neck, and shoulders.
Not super soft but highly supportive—perfect for long rides, especially on triathlon and gravel bikes.
John Cobb’s Insights: "I designed this saddle for women riders using road bikes with aero bars. It’s built with a 155mm rear width for better surface contact and a narrower nose to alleviate thigh chafing. The saddle’s designed to be slightly installed nose-high to help with core support and reduce pressure on the upper body during long training rides."
