Smanie

Smanie means passion for sport and we live this passion everyday. Eco-Friendly isn’t just a catchy buzzword at Smanie.

Smanie saddles are developed through partnerships with world-class athletes to meet the demands of the most challenging tracks and race situations, confirmed by studies carried out in the lab and fit studio and available to all. We design products so that you can focus on the road or trail ahead, the riders around you and absorb the experience that being on a bike brings. Eco-Friendly Production

Smanie high-end saddles manufactured in an Eco-Friendly production method. It’s the heart of our company, our employees, and our athletes. We start by producing all of our products from recycled materials. That includes our covers, foam, bases, rails, and even our packaging.

Cash is king

The GP sport uses the same tried and true design as our GP series saddles, but comes in at a price that won’t break the bank. Some high-end saddles finishing material can fade, discolor or look worn after several seasons of use. Our Sport series is designed to stay looking like new after miles and years of riding. The longevity of the saddle comes from our use of a PU cover and PU foam to help keep the money in your pocket and you on the road or trail.

Whatever the trail throws at our riders, the materials underneath them are chosen to be just as unwilling to compromise. That starts with biodegradable foam and recycled bases.

Ride hard. We’ll keep it clean behind the scenes.

The Sport 150, made for the bike you leave outside.
Parked at the rack all day? The PU cover is designed to handle the elements, so the saddle is ready when you are.

Smanie builds with recycled and eco-friendly materials, and the PU foam is biodegradable. Ride to work. Leave a lighter footprint.

Team Hrinkow trusts the Apex when the pace gets hard. It’s built for an aggressive posture, with ETPU and gel padding that keeps you planted while the pace stays high.

Partnerships with teams like the UR Team is where our saddle development starts.

Every Smanie top cover is made from environmentally safe materials that pass REACH standards, the EU’s toughest chemical safety regulation. The foam underneath is biodegradable, chosen specifically to cut our impact on the environment.

Performance you can feel. Materials you can feel good about.

Downhill is where a saddle gets developed brutal honesty.

The Smanie DH was shaped on World Cup tracks alongside the NS-Bikes UR Team and Mick and Tracey Hannah. Race feedback is something no lab can replicate, and every round of racing changed the saddle.

When tracks got steeper and riders began to experience too much interaction between their kit and the saddle, we cut the length to 244 mm, the shortest the UCI allows.

Deep suspension compressions and steep lean angles shaped the design of rear part of the saddle. We introduced rear cut-out reduces tire contact when the suspension bottoms out, and extra padding on the sides and nose prevents bruising on the rider’s legs when cornering hard.

Speed was always the main goal, so we modified version of our GP shell, tuned to balance flex against strength. Chromoly rails are light and handle the impacts that come with race day crashes.

The N.Spire comes in six colors because your bike should not be the only thing with personality.

Black, white, red, blue, green or orange, paired with three widths (136, 146, 156mm) to fit how you actually ride. Underneath the color is the same engineering on every version: varying foam densities instead of a cutout, a full solid shell for less flex, and Chromoly rails that hold up to enduro racing, trail days, XC laps and gravel grinding alike.

Match it to your frame. Match it to your kit. Match it to whatever mood gets you out the door.

Six hours in the saddle and the legs still have to find one more switchback.

This is what a team training block looks like. Not the highlight reel, just the team grinding through the hills with the cars trailing behind in case someone needs a bottle or a wheel change. Every rider here is on the Apex, DRS or GP saddle out on the same roads day after day where a saddle either earns its spot or gets swapped out fast.

Ours stayed.

Delta.

At 247mm it is one of the shortest saddles we build, and that is deliberate. The 145mm medium platform and flat profile give you a stable perch when you are putting down a real effort, while the short nose keeps you locked into the sweet spot instead of shifting around to find it.

16mm of PU padding takes the sting out of rough gravel without turning this into a comfort saddle. The cutout keeps blood flowing when you drop into an aggressive position. Chromoly rails and 240g, built for road and gravel as easily as CX or a TT bike.

Chicane. Take the line, hold the pace.

Every base and rail underneath starts as recycled material, formed on high-efficiency machines chosen to reduce energy use across production.

Precision on the bike. Precision behind it too.
