TAICHUNG, Taiwan (BRAIN) — Velo Enterprise Co has introduced a new saddle selection system to help consumers, IBDs and OEM customers navigate the growing number of saddle categories and offerings produced by the company, which claims to be the world's largest manufacturer of saddles for sale through the IBD channel.
The selection system takes into account type of bike; frequency of riding; speed; skill; and distance. Each of these is ranked on a scale of 1-5, with the results averaged to produce a number that correlates to saddle category assignments within the Velo line.
"The system helps to accelerate and simplify the process, focusing the customer on the roughly 20 percent of saddle offerings that will best meet their needs, and eliminating the confusion or distraction of sorting through the entire universe of saddles to find a good solution," the company said in a release.
