This Gravita version of the Alpaca saddle is the result of close collaboration with team Santa Cruz Syndicate’s riders & mechanics. It's World Cup proven features perfectly complement gravity oriented bikes, from long-travel enduro to pure downhill. You might not spend much time sitting on your saddle when riding fast down mountains, but the right set-up is still vital if you love fast, rowdy riding but want to stay in full control. Gravita Alpaca’s rounded contours allow smooth, fast movements of the inner legs as you guide your bike down the hill. Flexible edges along with the wings & rear end protect your inner legs from bruising, however rough the ride. & less bulk & a shorter length allow for more suspension travel. However much you enjoy the descents, you’ll still need to pedal to reach the top of the mountain. Gravita Alpaca’s flat surface allows continuous changes of position from fore to aft. & the nose is wide & flat, so as you shimmy forward to maintain traction when tackling steep climbs, you have a solid platform to push against. Rugged conditions & aggressive riding require solid solutions, that’s why all Alpaca saddles feature Mobius, our proprietary closed-loop rail design, for added strength & weight distribution, making snapped saddle rails on heavy landings a thing of the past. ...

Ride fast & enjoy total & confident control with the Gravita Tensor Clip MTB Shoes. Fizik's engineers have created a shoe that offers that perfect balance of protection, durability & a precise fit that is sorely lacking in many downhill & enduro MTB shoes. X6 Outsole. Clip in & Stay in Control. The heart of the Tensor Clip shoe is the X6 Outsole. It's this that keeps you confidently on the pedals & is crucial for reacting quickly, aggressively & nimbly to changing terrain & trail features. For the clipped version of the Gravita Tensor, Fizik has utilised a Vibram XS EVO tread compound. This isn't quite as sticky as that found on the flat-pedal shoe but makes for a smoother engagement & disengagement from clip-in pedals. The rubber compound is formed into a zonal lug pattern. Low profile mid-foot tread offers an optimal mechanical interface with pedal bodies, keeping you planted even if you don't immediately find your clip in point. Meanwhile, the heel & toes feature a deeper tread for greater traction when hiking back up the hill. Flex is also tuned for the clip-in rider. The stiffness gets a boost, rated 5 out of 10 on the Fizik stiffness scale, optimising power transfer & improving pedalling efficiency. Precision Fit Downhill & enduro racing is all about shorter more intense efforts. Sprinting from the start gate, pushing hard into berms & lung-busting racing to the finish line. & it's the precise fit of the Gravita Tensor that supports your foot during those efforts. No power wasted. The ergonomically designed lace pattern creates an even tension across the foot & makes for easy adjustment to how you like your shoes to feel. Stability is also enhanced via Fizik's Powerstrap. Sitting over the instep, it stabilises the plantar arch & locks your heel in place. It also doubles as a lace lock. Durable & Protective While rowdy mountain bike riding demands a tough shoe, Fizik didn't want to add unnecessary bulk or weight to the Tensor. The solution was to use a slim silhouette & utilise rip-stop fabrics that are very tough & yet remarkably light in weight. The rip-stop upper is also complemented by an injection-moulded TPU armoured toe-box to ward off rocks & roots
- just what you need when you're foot out & flat out. Laminated scuff-guards also protect in high wear areas. Lastly, when riding aggressively you're constantly moving & it's easy to hit your ankle to cranks & swingarms. Here the raised inner ankle pad takes the sting out of those impacts, while not affecting your ankle mobility. Cleat Guidance These MTB shoes are compatible with MTB pedal systems, which use cleats with SPD standard (2-bolt standard), e.g.: Shimano SPD, Time ATAC, Crank Brothers, Crank Brothers Race, Look MTB, Xtreme MTB, Wellgo MTB, Ritchey MTB.

Fizik's engineers have created a shoe that offers that perfect balance of protection, durability & a precise fit that is sorely lacking in many gravity-focused MTB shoes. X6 Outsole. Stay in Control. The heart of the Tensor Flat is the X6 Outsole. It's this that keeps you confidently on the pedals & is crucial for reacting quickly, aggressively & nimbly to changing terrain & trail features. The stickiest Vibram Megagrip rubber compound is formed into a zonal lug pattern. Low profile mid-foot tread offers an optimal mechanical interface with pedal pins for unshakeable pedal grip. You'll also enjoy easy foot transitions on & off the pedals. Meanwhile, the heel & toes feature a deeper tread for greater traction when hiking back up the hill. Flex is also tuned for the flat pedal rider. The supple sole is able to flex over the pedal, improving grip while a widened bottom spreads pressure & offers plenty of contact with wide platform pedals.

To this end, they turned to a hardwearing ripstop woven fabric for the upper, providing resistance to tearing & ripping & yet remaining remarkably light. It also offers a snug & supportive fit, rather than the bulky look & sloppy fit of many typical gravity shoes. Elsewhere, a PU-laminated toecap & side reinforcements provide protection from wear & tear & ward off rocks & roots
