DEBYA® is
the story of a
meeting between
3 passionate people
About thirty years ago, the idea of a customizable saddle, answering at the same time to the morphology of the cyclist and to his use, germinated in the mind of Thierry Lenat, dental surgeon teaching the dental prosthesis. This impassioned of bicycle, wanted to answer a personal problem following pains that he had experienced.
This idea has finally come to fruition thanks to the technological evolution of the last ten years. The advent of 3D printing allowing the manufacture of functional, custom-made and personalized parts.
The project to conceive the ideal saddle of bicycle, because entirely adapted to the anatomy and the practice of the cyclist takes shape when Thierry Lenat, meets Julien Mignot, master dental prothesist in CFAO.
Between them, they combine skills in footprinting and digital expertise, enabling them to create the first saddles as early as 2019.
In March 2022, Thierry meets Léo Bouvier, professional cyclist who will also join the project and allow the development of the products to continue
