Developed for demanding road cyclists and competitors, it replaces the traditional steel chassis with a \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"189\" data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003econtinuous carbon monocoque structure\u003c\/b\u003e. This technological choice not only significantly reduces weight, but also increases stiffness for optimal power transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eDespite its race-oriented profile, the C13 does not sacrifice comfort. It still uses the vulcanised natural rubber top that has made Brooks famous. This material acts as a natural suspension, absorbing the road vibrations that rigid plastic saddles typically transmit to the cyclist. With its refined profile and premium finishes, it is the ideal partner for the most high-performance carbon or titanium frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003eAre the carbon rails compatible with my seatpost?\u003c\/b\u003e The C13 has 7x9 mm oval rails. Most modern seatposts with side or vertical clamping are compatible, but check whether your clamp requires specific adapters for oval carbon rails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003eIs it much stiffer than the C15?\u003c\/b\u003e The carbon chassis is stiffer, which aids efficiency. However, the rubber top remains flexible, meaning you retain the \"Brooks\" comfort even on a racing saddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003eWhy is there no foam padding?\u003c\/b\u003e The very design of the saddle (rubber stretched over the chassis) eliminates the need for foam. Unlike foam which eventually compresses, vulcanised rubber retains its cushioning properties throughout the entire lifespan of the saddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003eIs it suitable for Gravel?\u003c\/b\u003e Yes, many cyclists use it in competitive Gravel riding for its ability to filter micro-vibrations while remaining very light for sprinting out of the saddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BROOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56606578639228,"sku":"PBS_BROO064325","price":164.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/3444\/9318\/files\/imgi_24_01.c203m-a06300-c13-nylon-145mm-black-3-4_1_1.jpg?v=1775806498","url":"https:\/\/probikeshop.com\/en\/products\/saddle-brooks-cambium-c13-145-mm-black","provider":"Probikeshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
