Prologo Proxim W460 is a Gravity-specific MTB Saddle For Extra Control on Extreme Trails
Summary By: eMotoX
Prologo has introduced the Proxim W460, a gravity-specific mountain bike saddle designed to meet the demands of extreme trail riding. Building on the existing Proxim range tailored for e-bikes, the W460 enhances the Multi Sector System (MSS) padding to provide a blend of durability, support, and comfort. The saddle targets gravity riders and heavy full-power eMTB users who require a product capable of withstanding significant impact and offering reliable control on technical terrain.
The W460 features a carefully zoned foam layout, with higher density padding under the sit bones for firm support, softer cushioning in the middle for comfort, and a stiffer nose area to aid climbing performance. This refined MSS design also extends increased padding along the saddle’s edges while softening the central zones, improving rider comfort without sacrificing stability. The base is constructed from reinforced nylon made with recycled materials, enhancing impact resistance, while the top surface incorporates new 3D-printed Slide Control grippers to help riders maintain traction on steep and challenging ascents.
Measuring 245mm in length and 145mm in width, the saddle sports a semi-round curve with a V-shaped profile, covered in durable synthetic microfiber. It is available with either lightweight titanium rails or recycled steel rails, weighing 241g and 294g respectively. The Proxim W460 is rated for downhill, freeride, enduro, and eMTB disciplines, reflecting its versatility across demanding mountain biking styles.
Priced at €109 for the titanium rail version and €79 for the recycled steel option, the Proxim W460 offers a competitively affordable choice for riders seeking a gravity-ready saddle that balances performance and resilience. It is currently available for purchase directly through Prologo’s website and authorised bike shops, making it accessible to riders looking to upgrade their setup for extreme trail conditions.
