Kashimax Areo Seat

The Kashimax Areo Seat was made from Nylon 6 and weighs only 440 grams including the seat guts. The seat has a NJS stamp under the shell, which means it was OK to use in pro track racing in Japan.

Available in blue, red, yellow and black.


Reproduction

The saddle was re-released in December 2008, due to high demand from the track bike crowd.
