BROOKS CAMBIUM C19 CARVED Saddle Black

The BROOKS C19 Carved Saddle is designed for those who refuse to make any compromise on comfort, even during daily commutes or long-distance touring. At 184 mm wide, it offers a generous seating platform, ideal for city bikes, cargo bikes and touring bikes where the upper body remains upright.

The qualifier "Carved" indicates the presence of a central ergonomic cutout. This clever cutout serves two essential functions: it eliminates all pressure on the perineal area and increases the overall flexibility of the saddle shell. By combining the width of the C19 and the flexibility of the cutout, Brooks has created a saddle that acts as a true natural shock absorber, capable of absorbing the most uneven cobblestones and rough roads.

Who is the "Carved" version recommended for? It is ideal for cyclists who are sensitive in the perineal area or those who find traditional saddles too firm. The cutout allows both sides of the saddle to move independently, making it more "cushioned" than the solid version.

Is it compatible with an electric bike (e-bike)? It is an excellent choice for e-bikes. Since you often remain seated for longer on an electric bike, the enhanced comfort of the C19 Carved effectively prevents saddle soreness.

Does the opening weaken the saddle? No. The vulcanised rubber structure is extremely robust. Brooks has reinforced the edges of the cutout to ensure the saddle retains its tension and original shape for many years.

How do I know whether I need a C19 or a C17? It is a matter of position: if your handlebars are higher than your saddle (upright position), choose the C19. If your handlebars are at the same height as or lower than the saddle (inclined position), the C17 will be more suitable.
