Quasar 2.0, aesthetics and performance, combined

Top-class materials and technologies for a saddle that weighs less than 170 grams, designed and developed by Repente on the basis of feedback from professional athletes and the many enthusiasts who use Repente saddles on and off the road. The first saddle by the Italian brand to have a steel rather than a carbon fibre rail.

Quasar 2.0 stands out both for the gritty appeal of its design and for its excellent cost/effectiveness. Painstaking care has been applied to every single detail - both in the design phase and in the product manufacturing process, all exquisitely Italian-made in the best Repente tradition.

Design, comfort and functionality come together in Quasar 2.0 - to meet the needs of both racers and amateur cyclists.

The saddle shape is characterised by a 142 mm "flat" design seat and central opening, integrated in a wide channel designed to relieve perineal pressure.

The comfortably sized rear support surface has been modelled according to anatomical and ergonomic requirements - a typical feature of all Repente saddles. The Close Fit effect produced by this particular shape makes the seat comfortable without having to use thick layers of padding and allows users to immediately find their most effective riding position.

The shell is made of PA12 reinforced with long carbon fibres (LCF technology).

The padding is in polyurethane, while water-based non-slip polyurethane microfiber has been chosen for the cover. 



The rail is made of Aisi Stainless Steel, a type of steel with highly advanced mechanical properties. Repente has further strengthened it by submitting it to a special process called Shot 304, which hardens the metal surface and makes it more resistant.

Corium is a superior quality handlebar tape inspired by the colour of leather ("corium" in Latin) and designed for cyclists who are after classic style equipment in natural colours for their bicycles.

In combination with Quasar in «brown» versions, it adds a touch of style and originality, especially in set-ups in the typical shades of gravel cycling. The two sturdy expander plugs caps with outside resin finish and the adhesive fastening terminals at the upper end of the tapes are also perfectly colour-matched.

Corium is the result of the combination of three types of material, selected for their special technical characteristics: the grip of water-based polyurethane combines with the strength of the microfibre and the high damping power of EVA.

The surface layer of the tape is washable and abrasion resistant.

The graphics of the package, made of recyclable cardboard, is inspired by the minimal, vintage style used by Repente to create this handlebar tape, designed for lovers of «cycling in style».

Corium is produced without the use of solvents and with non-allergenic materials.

2 handlebar tapes 216 cm long
