eZone: a saddle designed for e-bikes

Introduced by Italian supplier Selle Royal, eZone has been specifically designed to meet the needs of electric bike users.

« EZone is the result of the first in-depth study of electric bike users that we conducted in collaboration with the designers of Designworks, a BMW subsidiary.” explained Lara Kuniko, CEO of the Italian equipment manufacturer. " Research has identified a number of characteristics that can lead to a particular saddle design. She continued. 

Based on fully patented technologies, the eZone saddle offers features such as eFit design, a slightly raised rear end to avoid kickback when the motor is triggered. To offer the user more security and stability. The handle also makes it easier to control the bike during maneuvers. 

« Until now, saddles sold specifically for e-bikes have included a handle to facilitate movement, but the saddle design has so far remained much the same as on a traditional bicycle. Lara Kuniko makes excuses.

Selle Royal eZone will be officially presented in a few days at Eurobike. Opening of orders is scheduled for October.
