The Model 3 Touring saddle was designed for the "sweet spot" of bicycle ergonomics: that point where the saddle and handlebars sit on the same plane. In this neutral position, your body weight is distributed equally between your hands and your sit bones—a configuration that demands a saddle offering support without getting in the way. With a more streamlined profile than its counterpart, the Model 7 City, the Model 3 provides the perfect foundation for touring, brisk commuting, or long days spent on gravel trails.
There is no saddle that feels quite like your own personal leather saddle. High-quality leather is a living material that breathes, yields, and constantly evolves. Over the first few hundred kilometers, the leather begins to "mold" itself to your unique anatomy; it stretches and softens precisely in the areas where you need it most. The result is a custom fit that neither foam nor gel could ever replicate—a saddle that is uniquely yours and only improves with every passing year, provided it receives the proper care.
The construction of the Model 3 is engineered for durability. Velo Orange employs hammered rivets in the rear frame section, firmly anchored using copper washers. This is not merely
...not merely a homage to classic aesthetics, but a mechanical connection designed to withstand the high tension of the leather during the break-in phase—thereby ensuring that the cover remains firm and secure even after years of exposure to sun, rain, and sweat.
Whether you are building a dedicated randonneur or a modern "all-road" machine, the Model 3 offers a refined, stable foundation that allows you to enjoy your surroundings rather than having to worry about saddle comfort.
