Supacaz Scorch

The Scorch is designed primarily for performance and weight savings rather than plush comfort. Because it features a full carbon construction, it is quite rigid, so it is best suited for riders who prefer a firm, responsive saddle for shorter, high-intensity efforts or racing.

The carbon cover is smooth and firm, which allows for easy movement on the saddle during aggressive riding. However, it lacks the tackiness of leather or synthetic padded covers, so you may find yourself sliding slightly if you are wearing slick cycling shorts.

Yes, the Scorch uses oversized carbon rails. You will need to ensure your seatpost clamp is compatible with 7x9mm oval rails, as standard round rail clamps may not fit or could damage the carbon structure.

At 150 grams, this saddle is exceptionally light, which helps reduce the overall weight of your bike and makes it feel more agile during climbs and accelerations. The trade-off is a lack of padding, meaning the saddle relies entirely on the shape and flex of the carbon shell for support.

While it is technically possible to use it on gravel, the Scorch is engineered for road cycling. The rigid, full-carbon construction does not offer the vibration damping needed for rough terrain, and it may feel harsh on anything other than smooth pavement.
