OEM WORKFLOW
OEM Bicycle Saddle Process
From initial brief to sample approval, production, quality control, and shipment, SPROKETO helps brands develop custom bicycle saddles with a clear, structured OEM workflow.
How the OEM Saddle Process Works
Consultation and Project Brief
Understand your target market, rider profile, saddle type, budget range, branding needs, packaging requirements, and quality expectations.
Model Selection or Custom Direction
Choose from existing 3D printed or conventional saddle platforms, or discuss a custom direction for shape, structure, cushioning, rail system, cover material, and packaging.
Design and Prototype Development
Prepare the development direction, material options, logo placement, color references, packaging direction, and prototype samples for review.
Sample Review and Refinement
Review saddle comfort, structure, finish, weight, branding details, packaging presentation, and buyer feedback before moving forward.
Pre-Production Confirmation
Confirm specifications, materials, colors, packaging artwork, labels, carton marks, MOQ, lead time, and production details before bulk production.
Production and Quality Control
Manage production with checks on appearance, structure, rail alignment, surface finish, batch consistency, packaging quality, and shipment readiness.
