Progetto X2 Air Seamless Seat Pad
Next to your skin we place the appropriately named Skin Care Layer. It’s the softest and stretchiest layer we’ve ever made, to move with your skin and avoid abrasions.
Beneath that layer is a completely separate component that we call the Cushioning Layer. It’s in the shape of a saddle and provides progressive cushioning exactly where you need it. There’s a soft foam for immediate comfort, with a medium-density foam for support and 3 mm gel pads under the sit bones and perineum. Made with a 3D forming process, the pad features infinitely variable thickness and has no pronounced steps like many pads that are simply punched out with a die.
This pad has seen more than 12 years of continuous evolution. It originally debuted with the Cervélo TestTeam in 2009, and since then it has seen more than 40 adjustments to every material, shape, position, and manufacturing process, with each modification intended to make it more comfortable. This iterative process of continuous improvement means that not a single material used today is the same as it was in 2009. It just keeps getting more comfortable
