Repente saddle Quasar CR 142 mm (black)

The REPENTE Quasar CR saddle defines the term ultralight. The most commonly used width of 142 mm, rails made of UD T700 carbon fibres and quality EVA foam padding make the Quasar an ideal material for gram hunters.

The REPENTE Quasar CR saddle defines the term "ultralight". The most commonly used width of 142 mm, rails made of UD T700 carbon fibres and quality EVA foam padding make the Quasar an ideal material for gram hunters. Thanks to innovations and the EVA lining, the total weight of the saddle has dropped to just 129 grams.

The new Quasar CR is among the lightest padded saddles in the world!

The Quasar CR is made entirely in Italy. The "handy length" of 260 mm is an ideal compromise between the necessary freedom of movement and high pedalling efficiency. The opening in the central part of the saddle serves to relieve pressure in the perineal area. In line with standards, the Quasar CR rail profile is 7×9 mm.

The wide rear support surface was modelled according to the anatomical and ergonomic requirements of Repentes characteristic "Close fit" design: the brands iconic shaping, which ensures saddle comfort without the need for thick layers of padding. The nose shape tapered at the tip was modelled to allow an easy transition from sitting to the sprint position and back.

A unique carbon construction for extremely low weight.

MSR (Multi-Section Carbon Rail) - combined carbon rail structure

In REPENTE saddles the rails do not serve merely a supporting function. By achieving the right combination of carbon stiffness and flexibility along the full length of the rails, this part of the saddle can be used as a damping element. The flattened rear ends provide stiffness in the most stressed part of the saddle, while the front ends merging into a single structural element have a positive effect on the flexibility of the whole. The pressure exerted on the saddle in different phases of riding thus always brings an optimal response.

LCF (Long Carbon Fiber) - long carbon fibres

So that the saddle does not lose its stiffness and shape over time, the REPENTE saddle research and development department developed LCF technology. Instead of ordinary carbon fibres, longer carbon fibres are added to the resin, which, thanks to a special injection process, are arranged to match the longitudinal flow of the material, which increases the strength of the entire structure. As tests have shown, this technology minimises the risk of deformation or collapse of the carbon shell.
