free <strong>performance</strong>. We have also given two travel positions so the travel can be adjusted quickly to your preferred setting.<br />
Saddle We’ve used SDG I-Beam saddles and seatposts on a lot of our high end bikes this year. Reason ? – They are<br />
extremely light, comfortable and as an added bonus they are strong and have a wide range of adjustment.<br />
