BURGTEC THE CLOUD DH Saddle

The Burgtec The Cloud DH saddle is the ultimate downhill saddle, developed in close collaboration with the best riders on the DH World Cup circuit. Designed to withstand the harshest treatment, it offers a compact and clean profile that facilitates body movement and prevents any snagging on the shorts during intense and committed riding phases.

Beneath its minimalist design lies a surprisingly comfortable saddle, thanks to its flexible base and dual-zone high-density foam. Its truncated rear section prevents the tyre from rubbing against the saddle during full suspension bottom-outs (a common issue on modern long-travel DH bikes). Its robust Chromoly (Cr-Mo) rails complete the package, offering maximum resistance to impacts during missed landings.

Can this saddle be fitted to an Enduro or Trail MTB? Although it is specifically optimised for downhill riding (where the rider spends most of their time standing), the The Cloud DH saddle can certainly be fitted to an Enduro bike. However, its foam is firm and its profile is very compact; if you spend long hours seated and pedalling uphill, the The Cloud Boost version (aimed at Enduro/Trail) will be considerably better suited and more comfortable.

Are the Chromoly rails compatible with all seatposts? Yes. Its standard round Chromoly steel rails (7 mm diameter) are compatible with the vast majority of seatpost cradles on the market (whether rigid or dropper posts).

How do you clean the saddle after a muddy ride? Its synthetic cover is waterproof and highly resistant. Simply use clean water and a soft cloth (or a soft-bristle brush such as a Kärcher universal brush) with a little mild bike detergent. Avoid pointing high-pressure washers directly at the junction between the cover and the plastic shell, so as not to damage the bonding over time.
