Why lower your center of gravity? – Road Bikes

vs

Variable Seat Position allows:• Lower center of gravity• Better cornering and traction• Equal distribution of weight• More control over the bicycle• Increased aerodynamics

Why lower your center of gravity? Off Road

vs

Variable Seat Position allows:• Lowering center of gravity critical for off-road • Nearly three inches of extra suspension added• Flows with the rider’s natural body movements • Better control over rugged terrain

Main Competitors – Off Road

(Dozens of moving parts -

a mechanical nightmare!)

GravityDropper ThudBuster

Product recalled due to breakage

Market Competition – Road Bikes

None. Gravity±Seat First suspension seat post system in the world designed

for Road Bikes

Intuitive design, virtually no moving parts

Long Term Competitive Advantages Reverse angle design

patented – no current competitor can incorporate into their models

Intuitive design/few moving parts

“Why didn’t I think of that?” factor

Flows with rider’s movements

Room for further refinement to maintain competitive edge (e.g. carbon fiber, nitrogen damper, adjustable spring rates)
