Product Information
Full details
The Gusset S2 DJ Saddle is designed for dirt jump, slopestyle, and park riders who prioritize bike control and a clean, snag-free profile during complex maneuvers. Developed with pro rider Matt Jones, this saddle excels at providing grip for technical tricks; however, its specialized Pivotal Stealth mount means it is not compatible with standard railed seatposts.

FAQs
Does this saddle fit on a standard mountain bike seatpost?
No, this saddle requires a specific Pivotal-style seatpost and is not compatible with standard railed seatpost heads.
What is the benefit of the Pivotal Stealth system?
The Stealth system removes the bolt hole from the top of the saddle, providing a cleaner aesthetic and preventing clothes from snagging on exposed hardware.
Is this seat comfortable for long XC rides?
No, this saddle is designed specifically for dirt jump and slopestyle use. It features minimal padding and a rigid shell that is not suited for seated pedaling.
How do I clean the grip points?
Use warm water and a soft brush to remove dirt from the rubber grip patches. Avoid high-pressure washers, which can damage the fabric cover.
Can I replace the rubber grip patches?
The grip points are custom-molded into the design; they are not replaceable as individual components.
Troubleshooting
Saddle slips or tilts during landing
Ensure the internal bolt is torqued firmly and check that the teeth on the Pivotal post head are not stripped or worn.
Difficulty accessing the mounting bolt
Ensure you are using an appropriately long Allen key (4mm or 6mm depending on specific post hardware) to reach the internal bolt depth.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Integrated anti-slide grip points improve trick consistency
- Pivotal Stealth mount eliminates seatpost snagging
- Robust construction handles heavy-duty impacts
- Sleek, minimalist aesthetic fits most modern DJ builds
Cons
- Requires a specific Pivotal seatpost for installation
- Not intended for long-distance pedaling or comfort-focused riding
- Limited adjustment range compared to railed saddle systems
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the Gusset S2 DJ Saddle, you must have a compatible Pivotal seatpost. Unlike traditional railed saddles, the Pivotal system uses a single bolt accessed through the top of the seat.
- Insert the seatpost into the frame and tighten your seat clamp.
- Remove any protective cover from the bolt access hole on the saddle surface if applicable.
- Use a long-reach Allen key to tighten the internal bolt into the top of the Pivotal post.
- Ensure the saddle is angled correctly before final tightening to prevent movement during tricks.
For care, wipe the fabric surface with a damp cloth after muddy rides to maintain the integrity of the anti-slide grips. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents on the rubber grip patches as this may degrade the material.
