Road bike essentials for the summer

Published on 06.06.2024
Summer has all but arrived, and there's no better time to get on your road bike and enjoy the freedom of the open road. With warm temperatures and long days, the season offers ideal conditions for long rides and fast sprints. At SQlab, we know how important the right equipment is for optimum performance and maximum comfort. That's why we have developed our products specifically for use on road bikes. From ergonomic saddles, handlebars and handlebar tape to well-designed pedals and the right clothing - SQlab ensures comfort and performance on every kilometer. 

The perfect saddle


The sporty and comfortable road bike saddle offers optimum support and pressure distribution thanks to its wave-like shape and raised rear, which improves power transmission. The lower nose and the recess in the middle create more space in the perineal area. The active technology ensures increased comfort, mobilizes the spinal discs and minimizes pressure on the sit bones. Compared to the 612 R, it offers more comfort over shorter distances.


The raised rear improves grip and power transfer, especially on straight stretches and uphill. The strong waist and narrow saddle nose offer more legroom. The proven ERGOWAVE® shape relieves pressure on the perineal area and prevents unfavorable protective postures. The weight- and flex-optimized saddle shell offers more longitudinal stiffness and lateral comfort.


The 612 R in the limited team design and carbon rails. This version not only offers an impressive weight reduction, but also even greater stiffness for optimum performance. The team design gives the saddle a dynamic and professional look that fits perfectly with any road bike. Ideal for ambitious road cyclists who value aesthetics and top performance.


The matching cockpit



The 812 R road bike stem is SQlab's first model for an ergonomic road bike cockpit. With an adjustable angle of -12° or -17° and integrated cable routing, it offers optimum aerodynamics and ergonomics. In combination with the 312 R carbon handlebars, the result is an ergonomic cockpit solution for ambitious road cyclists that guarantees stability and safety.  


Our ergonomic lightweight that builds on our proven expertise in MTB handlebars. With a 10° front sweep, it not only offers perfect ergonomics, but also ideal adaptation to the needs of ambitious road cyclists. Optimized contact surfaces, such as the Ergobar for a grippy underside of the grip and maximum contact surface for a secure hold, optimize pressure distribution. Di2 compatibility makes it versatile and ready for the challenges of the road.


The 712 handlebar tape from SQlab offers a non-slip diamond structure that provides excellent grip and control. Thanks to a sizing system that takes different sized hands into account, it adapts perfectly to individual needs. The appropriate wrap thickness improves comfort on long rides. A perfect combination of cushioning and grip for a pleasant riding experience.

The right clothing


The SQ-Short ONE12 Women is the first road bike short for women from SQlab. The main difference lies in the adapted cut to the female body shape and small needs during the ride, which makes short pit stops at the toilet easier. With the ingenious support system, the pants save time and still offer a firm fit of the pants pad during the ride. The SQ-Pad 12 offers maximum comfort for long distances without becoming uncomfortably deformed.

The SQ-Short ONE12 R has a high-quality, minimalist and simple design and has been specially developed for competition riders. With the 4 mm thin and tight SQ-Pad 12R, it offers maximum comfort for racers in a very sporty riding position. The shorts use only the best materials and offer improved breathability thanks to a flexible mesh insert and ultrasonically welded seams. The laser-cut leg cuffs and the compression fabric ensure an optimal fit and durability. The SQ-Pad 12R is thin, high-density, breathable, quick-drying and OEKO-TEX® 100 certified.



The SQ-Jersey ONE12 is designed for demanding passes and long distances on the road. The lightweight, breathable material and 4-way stretch offer maximum freedom of movement. Seamless collar and bonded cuffs minimize chafing. Raglan sleeves and an asymmetric cut ensure an optimum fit. The elasticated waistband with silicone print stays in place. With back pockets and a concealed, waterproof zippered pocket, it offers plenty of storage space for important items.
