Not every rider needs the same saddle — because not every rider rides the same way. 🚴

If you’re not sure which ISM is right for you, start with how you ride:

🏁 Road, triathlon or performance-focused riding?
Start with the Performance line, designed for more performance-oriented bikes and riding positions.

🚲 Hybrid, cruiser or casual riding?
The Comfort line is designed for a more upright position and can be used with cycling shorts or regular clothing.

Once you know which category fits your riding style, you can narrow it down by saddle shape and padding level. ISM offers different padding options because some riders prefer a softer feel, while others prefer something firmer.

And remember: there’s no one-size-fits-all saddle. Your bike, riding style and personal preference all matter.

Start with how you ride. Then find the ISM that fits your ride.

👉 Find your ISM.

The ISM P1 Gravel has arrived:
Utilizes our Performance Narrow 3 shape/chassis. Where the road ends is where the adventure begins. Gravel riding comes with many challenges. The terrain can be brutal and aggressive. The distance can be long and demanding. It requires focus, endurance, and resilience. The last thing you want to think about is saddle discomfort. The P1 Gravel was designed for such riding. The saddle width is 120mm to support a range of riders. We use HR (high rebound) air foam on the P1 Gravel which absorbs 30% more vibration for additional comfort. The ATMOS molding process allows for a sleek, waterproof finish and reduced weight. Like all ISM saddles, the P1 Gravel is nose-less and our patented design eliminates pressure from the soft tissue/perineum, ensuring maximum blood flow, no ge***al numbness, and a healthier, more enjoyable ride
