omfort plays a big part in the enjoyment of riding a motorcycle. At best, it is unpleasant to be “saddle sore” at the end of a day on your bike. Travelcade-Saddlemen has understood for a long time that the posterior should be treated with kindness and respect, and they have designed their SaddleGel™ Seats and Pads with this in mind.
     Why Gel? To provide the ultimate in comfort in motorcycle seats for those long hours in the saddle. Travelcade-Saddlemen introduced Gel into motorcycle seats after extensive R&D and they continue to develop and test to keep ahead of the competition.

     Take their SaddleGel™ Pads, for example. They’re developed to easily mount on a wide variety of motorcycles. Easy on—easy off, no need to buy a new seat. SaddleGel™ Pads fit over your stock seat and provide hours of riding comfort. Three convenient sizes fit all needs: The larger pads fit driver’s seats while the smaller pad fits passenger, pillion or “buddy” seats.

Available in three convenient sizes, SaddleGel™ pads fit over
most stock seats.

     Gel will not work properly unless it is correctly engineered and tested in each particular seat. Travelcade-Saddlemen seats use a premium foam and SaddleGel™ combination that is designed to perform three simultaneous functions:
     The foam/gel cushion conforms to the rider’s      posterior
      The cushion separates the rider from the hard      and uncomfortable frame
      The cushion acts as a shock absorber to      dampen out road bumps and vibrations
     The SaddleGel Seat is made to last many years—and miles. And, here’s a bonus—SaddleGel™ Seats are guaranteed for life. If it ever deteriorates or fails to perform, it will be replaced free of charge!
     Travelcade-Saddlemen uses only the best materials and craftsmen to manufacture their seats. Each cover is carefully hand-sewn by artisans who have years of training. Using only the finest materials—developed through years of experience and testing—Saddlemen’s SaddleGel™ Seats and Pads will withstand the harsh elements of sun, water and road grime and still look and feel great. To accentuate the comforting feel of the      SaddleGel™cushion, Saddlemen uses the durable and easily maintained Saddlehyde™, which stretches in four directions.
     And, unlike many original seat pans that are made from thin, flexible poly plastic that provides inadequate support, Travelcade-Saddlemen uses rigid-molded ABS or hand-laid fiberglass to provide the strength needed for a quality saddle. They also use molded foams that utilize a closed cell outer-wall that defines the foam shape and seals the open-celled inner chamber against dirt and other contaminants. This combination of open cell foam for soft comfort and dense, closed cell walls for support outperforms all other foam designs. SaddleGel™ is then molded into place during the foaming process and will never leak, displace or wear out with heavy use.
     Travelcade-Saddlemen has put as much R&D into their seats as many manufacturers put into whole motorcycles. Comfort and quality are the focus of Travelcade-Saddlemen.
