<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThough they have access to the full range of PRO saddles the Team DSM riders typically choose from the Performance versions of the Falcon, Turnix and Griffon saddles, as well as the Stealth Carbon and Stealth Superlight models. Each of these is available in a range of widths and is optimized for various positions on the bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- PRO\u2019s Falcon Performance saddle allows riders including Casper Pedersen, Niklas M\u00e4rkl and Thymen Arensman to tilt their pelvis forward in order to maintain a stable and aerodynamic aggressive position on the bike.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
- PRO\u2019s Turnix Performance saddle is used by riders where the support of the horizontal curve helps them to optimize pelvic stability in their race position. Used by riders like Coryn Rivera, Nikias Arndt and Asbj\u00f8rn Kragh Andersen, this saddle comes either as an anatomic recess design or in a traditional closed version.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
- PRO\u2019s Griffon Performance saddle is designed to optimize comfort and stability during a more upright body position, for example on longer climbs. Riders like Nicholas Roche, Marco Brenner and Chad Haga use this saddle to optimize their climbing performance as it allows riders to move around more on the saddle, but remain comfortable regardless of where they settle.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
- PRO\u2019s final saddle for Team DSM is the Stealth Carbon which features a short-nosed design and wide anatomic recess for riders who like to lay maximum power down in an aggressive race position with optimal pelvic support. Sprinters like Cees Bol, Nils Eekhoff and Alberto Dainese use this saddle.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are very happy to continue the relationship with PRO,\u201d Team DSM\u2019s Jente Rijpstra, Commerce Manager said. \u201cWe have a great working relationship with their product team and we\u2019re delighted to see how our product feedback has been incorporated over the years in to the designs of the PRO saddles we\u2019re riding this year. We are confident that PRO\u2019s blend of performance, comfort and positioning will give Team DSM a competitive edge, especially as fatigue kicks in later in the season.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAside from being incredibly proud to see how the riders at Team DSM take time to understand our technologies and choose their saddles based on their characteristics we\u2019re also thrilled to see our products performing again at the highest level,\u201d <\/em>Alexa Cunningham, PRO Marketing Manager added. \u201cPRO has been providing world-class products to teams at the pinnacle of the sport since 1989 and we look forward to seeing our saddles in action on the bikes of riders like Romain Bardet, Tiesj Benoot, Coryn Rivera and Liane Lippert.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere has been a lot of change at Team DSM in the off-season,\u201d<\/em> Cunningham continued. \u201cThe team changed title sponsors and switched to SCOTT bikes. Being able to remain one of the squad\u2019s consistent partners during this exciting period showcases PRO\u2019s commitment to building lasting and productive relationships. It\u2019s through the consistency of working with individual riders and professional teams that PRO is able to obtain reliable product feedback and continually evolve and improve our products.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWith the 2021 cycling season having recently got underway we\u2019re thrilled to see Team DSM in action and to see their riders performing on PRO saddles,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Cunningham concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
