SQ Lab Saddle 60X Egowave
The new e-bike saddle 6OX combines the advantages of the successful saddle models ERGOWAVE® and ERGOLUX®. As part of the product development, the shape of the saddle was adapted and perfected for the special use on the E-MTB as well as for the Gravity Bike.
The wave shaped 6OX profile which contours from the rear to the front offers a perfect form-fit shape for most sit bones. The raised back section provides more rearward support and ensures efficient power transmission. The grip material on the raised back provides additional support to the rear. In addition, the saddle cover is robust, especially at the edges.
The level and lowered saddle nose applies less pressure to the sensitive areas of men and women alike. For an even better pressure relief, especially on long technical climbs, the saddle nose of the 6OX became a little bit wider, but just as flat and with largest possible surface area. The padding was designed for the specific needs on the E-MTB with perfect dampening properties for rough off-road terrain.
Due to these modifications, the 6OX is the ideal saddle for long and steep climbs on the E-MTB and at the same time, even on bikes without an engine, it provides an optimum relief. The wave shaped 6OX profile which contours from the rear to the front offers a perfect form-fit shape for most sit bones.
The SQlab active-saddle technology lets the saddle follow the pedalling motion as comfort increases, the vertebral discs are mobilized and pressure on the sit bones is minimised. The correct width saddle is a prerequisite for maximum performance. Available widths: 13 cm/14 cm/15 cm/16 cm

Area of use: MTB Gravity & E-Performance
The 6OX is the ideal saddle for long and steep climbs on the E-MTB and at the same time provides optimal relief, even on bikes without a motor. The wave-shaped 6OX profile, which contours from back to front, provides a perfect fit for most sit bones.
BIKE “Ergonomic Tip”
“Ergonomic Tip” in the saddle test of the BIKE magazine (07/20)
„The double step of the 6OX almost completely relieves the perineal area and gives the rider an enormous amount of support on the ascent […]. The movable saddle shell follows the pedalling movement and thus relieves the back.“
Perfect Fit
The correct saddle width is a key for maximum performance.
Available widths in cm: 13, 14, 15, 16
More free space – less pressure
Pressure mapping diagram of the SQlab 6OX
The pressure mapping diagram shows an optimal pressure distribution from a medical point of view on the sit bones and pubic bones. Almost no pressure is exerted on the perineal area.
Perfect hold
The SQlab saddle shape with the raised seat surface is already perfectly suited for riding uphill and also provides more power to the pedals on straights. Additionally, a special non-slip logo design ensures even more grip towards the back.
Gripdesign
The grip material on the raised stage provides additional hold towards the back.
Biomechanics
The 6OX saddle is equipped with 3 different elastomer dampers that are tailored individually to body weight and can be interchanged as needed. |
Sit Bone Measurement
SQlab became the first saddle manufacturer to introduce a system to measure the distance between the sit bones and to calculate the optimal saddle width
