Brooks England B17 Standard Saddle - Men's
Urban cycling (like cycling in general, to be fair) is all about blending form with function, and nobody does that better than Brooks England. Its B17 Standard Men's Saddle is the epitome of this design philosophy, and Brooks has been making it for over 100 years, so it's not surprising that the company has the B17 pretty much dialed. The full-grain leather cover helps keep the saddle from overheating on warm days, and is designed to conform slowly to your anatomy over long periods of riding, so you'll end up with a nearly custom fit after a few months. The B17's steel rails are strong and absorb road vibrations, and the saddle's wide tail and abrupt taper help provide a solid pedaling platform while eliminating rubbing and discomfort.
WTB Pure Pro Saddle - Men's
The Pure Pro Saddle is a little bit plusher than most of WTB's other offerings, but it doesn't have a significant weight penalty as a result of the extra cushioning. With its Cro-Moly steel rails, the Pro weighs 263g, which isn't featherlight but won't slow you down on cross-country or all-mountain rides. It's dropped nose and rising whale-tail back prevent short hang-ups and give you a platform to push against when you're climbing, and the Flex-Tuned shell blends suppleness and responsiveness so you have great feel without getting hammered to smithereens on rough trails. WTB also outfitted the Pure Pro with its DNA padding, which conforms to your anatomy almost like memory foam to relieve pressure points and keep you feeling fresh for the long haul.
Selle SMP F30 C Saddle - Men's
The F30 C Saddle is one of the newer saddles in the Selle SMP lineup and it provides the benefits of classic SMP designs in a more compact shape that doesn't have quite the exaggerated drop nose. Regardless, it still provides greater comfort while in the drops than conventional saddles and the ability to move about, finding a powerful position without excessive pressure. Another patented SMP feature is its ergonomic center channel that relieves compression in the perineal and prostate area helping to eliminate tingling and numbness. Additionally, nerves and the vascular regions are protected and the entire area enjoys increased blood flow and better ventilation.
The tail of the saddle receives a kicked up design for maximum pelvic support and better stabilization. This provides a better foundation when putting out the watts and a better position while climbing. Also of note at the rear of the saddle is its slight rear cutout that's there to protect the coccyx.
This particular saddle is covered in leather in the black version and microfiber for the white one. It receives a minimal amount of foamed elastomer padding covering a carbon reinforced nylon shell. The saddle rides on stainless steel AISI 304 rails offering a wide fore/aft range and great shock absorption.
So these sounds are really specific. First of all they are to say we have a. Very special design patented. Design why we start from the assumption. That cycling must be a pleasure so we. Have very specific and exclusive. Features on all of our selves first of all there's the complete open cutout from the back up to the nose you can. Find many saddles with just a hole in the middle but the most important part where the carrot must be is the front why because most of pressure on your perineal area and private parts is concentrated here while riding and this. Is what this is one of the things that make our service different from the others another thing is the nose. Dropping down so it's very important to. Avoid any pressure on your private parts. And per unit area again so to get a better comfort and better performance as well as you can see maybe some of them. Some people they know our curved shape. Which features most of our models why. Because in this way when sitting on the. Saddle when riding there's a better. Match between the shape of the ischial generosities and the surface of the. Saddle so no matter we'll wash your. Pelvis rotation depending on your. Position on the bike but you can have a perfect match between them moving pressure from the private parts to the. Ischial generosities which is the only good place where pressure must be. But we're gonna launch a new. Concept a new evolution in the concept of smb which is yes 30c ok as you can. See first of all differently from our. Traditional concept is not curved but. It's flatter why because if some users. Need to get a better support thanks to. This shape so from between your ischial. Generosities and especially the back up back part of the saddle having a very solid position of the on the bike. Some others they need to be more. Especially mentally they wanna be more free to move by riding and in this way. They can have the maximum freedom of. Movement no matter what the position they assume on the bike, and we have two. Versions of these thank you very much is. The f30 so it's the same sub in two. Different lines, so we have all the options available for customers to. Get onboard on these new models and the. Main thing is that you have on both versions you have a wide sitting surface. On the back for easier to grow this but in the same time you have a very lean. Shape in the central part of the saddle and on front as well so you don't. Scratch with your lights against the saddle so everybody it doesn't matter what the body configuration can use these models with satisfaction so it's a kind. Of universal new concept which can fit. Everybody and it depends on if they prefer. A short or a long shadow.
Selle SMP Nymber Carbon Saddle - Men's
All of the saddles in the Selle SMP range feature a striking shape that's responsible for the comfort that many cyclists aren't able to find in other saddles. These innovative shapes and pressure-relieving profiles leave many cyclists with that "eureka" moment and they wish they had found the saddle sooner. If you are seeking out a Selle SMP saddle, the two things you'll want to consider are the amount of padding the saddle provides, and choose your preference, and the pant size you wear and how that corresponds to the saddles Selle SMP recommends. The saddle we have here, the Men's Nymber Carbon Saddle, has a minimal amount of padding which conspires with the carbon rails to keep the weight low and is recommended for cyclists with a waist between 32-37-inches.
The Nymber is recommended for road, cross-country, and tri applications. At its nose is the signature "beak" shape providing a flat foundation while seated, while reducing pressure on soft tissues. SMP's central channel is also incorporated, for further pressure reduction on the pudendal nerve and surrounding sensitive areas. The back of the saddle features a pronounced ramp that provides the ideal platform for bracing against on the climbs and helps better divide body weight over the ischial tuberosity on either side of the channel. Furthermore, the shape reduces overall pressure on the coccyx, increasing long-range comfort, especially over rougher roads.
The saddle is covered in soft leather on the black version and features a durable Lorica microfiber on the colored versions. Underneath the covering is a thin, elastomer foam for lasting comfort on those endless chip seal rural roads, while the carbon reinforced composite shell floats on unidirectional carbon fiber rails, dropping some serious grams and further aiding in the reduction of high-frequency vibrations.
The Selle SMP Nymber comes in at 267mm long and 139mm wide and in the colors Black, Yellow Fluo, and White. It is handmade in Italy and has a claimed weight of 230 grams.
Brooks England Team Pro Classic Saddle - Men's
The Brooks Team Pro Classic Saddle is a simpler, more modern version of the Team Professional, which Brooks has been making for over half a century. The Team Pro Classic features modern tubular steel rivets instead of the large hand-hammered copper rivets made famous by the original Brooks Heritage saddles.

Fi'zi:k Gobi M1 Carbon Braided Rail Saddle - Men's
The Gobi is a mountain-specific saddle for riders who fall in the middle of Fizik’s flexibility range. The shape is relatively flat with pedal-friendly WingFlex technology. The shell has a built-in, controlled flex designed for both comfort and pedal efficiency. Tailflex works the same way, with an engineered flex zone that’s anatomically designed for comfort. The majority of the support is located beneath the sit bones, and a subtle hollowed area relieves pressure on the soft tissue areas.
The Gobi M1 is built with braided carbon fiber rails and then wrapped with another layer of carbon fiber cloth for additional durability. The rails are oval—9mm tall by 7mm wide. This strengthens the rails while assuring compatibility with almost any seatpost. They are also roughly 80 grams lighter than their Kium siblings. Fizik finished the saddle with its tough Microtex cover, then added slick thigh glides that make position adjustments easy.
Selle SMP KRYT3 Saddle - Men's
Selle SMP designs saddles for various cycling disciplines and with its Men's KRYT3 Saddle, it might just be the first saddle we've come across that's built for criteriums. We're quite certain that’s not the only arena it will excel in and we're kind of surprised it doesn't come with some sort of protective anti-abrasion material on the sides to withstand the inevitable crash, but nevertheless, it's designed with a shape that supports quick adjustments to speed and handling that’s needed on a tight, closed course. This saddle gets its signature shaping and standard elastomer foam padding keeping you comfortable way past the 1-hour plus a lap timing of your typical crit.
The KRYT3 is indeed all SMP with its signature pressure relieving center channel and iconic dropped nose. This shaping relieves pressure on soft tissue and places it on the sit bones which, as it turns out, are way better at supporting our body weight while seated. SMP shapes the carbon reinforced nylon shell to work best for a cyclist with pant size ranging between 30 and 35-inches for maximum comfort. The black version features a soft leather cover while the color versions use a durable microfiber. Stainless steel rails resist corrosion and boost durability so the saddle stays with you for years to come.
So these sounds are really specific. First of all they are to say we have a. Very special design patented. Design why we start from the assumption. That cycling must be a pleasure so we.

Selle Italia Novus Boost Gravel Tech Superflow S Saddle - Men's
Riding and racing over mixed surfaces are difficult enough, so there's no need to add saddle discomfort to the challenge. You can now say goodbye to pain in your nether regions on your all-road adventures with the Novus Boost Gravel Tech Superflow S Saddle from Selle Italia. With a compact shape and rounded profile tuned especially for gravel riding, it offers various seating positions and in conjunction with its variable density, silicone gel double padding under the durable Fibra-Tek microfiber cover, you'll achieve a comfortable ride no matter the distance or terrain.
Like other Superflow saddles in Selle Italia's lineup, the Novus Boost Gravel Tech's Gel Flow anatomic cut-out virtually eliminates pressure on the perineum and other soft tissues. This saddle falls under its S3 idmatch meaning its narrow shell is suited for those with sit bones that are closer to one another and those who have a fit requiring high pelvic rotation. Besides the added comfort this saddle offers, one of our favorite details is the large reflective treatment it adds to the rear of the saddle. It adds impressive visibility in low-light conditions and offers peace of mind when we forget to pack a light and we're out for longer than we expected. Finally, joining the saddle to your post is Selle Italia's TI316 rails utilizing titanium tubing for the durability needed over rougher roads and gravel while dropping some grams and helping to take the sting out of the repeated washboards and braking bump hits.
Ergon SM3 Pro Saddle - Men's
When you're pushing hour six into an endurance race, 20 millimeters might not seem like a great distance. But, that's the difference between a Small and Large Ergon SM3 Pro Saddle. And when it comes down to determining long-term comfort on the trail, it's a significant factor. That's why Ergon saddles comes in three different sizes.
The German-based Ergon always places its focus on comfort, and accordingly, its first handlebar grips gained a quick cult following because of their support and ability to reduce fatigue. And when those grips took off, instead of sitting on success, Ergon expanded its offerings to include more contact components like hydration packs, gloves, and now, even saddles.
Using the same benchmark design principle, Ergon designed the SM3 saddle from the ground up. To start with, the the ultra-thin shell used an extensive finite element method analysis to map loads and areas of stress. This gives the saddle its distinctive shape, but more importantly, it allowed Ergon to tune the shell construction for optimized deflection.
The shell has progressive dampening layers that are individual to the different saddle widths. Every size option gets its own layer for rider-specific compression. Adding to the SM3's trail taming, is a nose mounted micro damper. This damper, located in between the shell and TiNox rails, filters out smaller vibrations. The rails are hollow to reduce weight and allow 30mm of adjustment. The SM3 also has an easy-to-clean synthetic leather cover -- just wipe it off with a damp rag.
After developing the SM3, Ergon enlisted the help of the saddle perfectionists at Selle Italia for production. So, every SM3 has been made in Italy by expert craftsmen. To size yourself for an Ergon SM3 Pro Saddle, you'll need to measure the distance between your sit bones. Widths between 9-11cm should ride a Small, 11-13cm medium, and 13-15cm should opt for a Large.
The Ergon SM3 Pro Saddle is available in the colors Black and White and in the sizes Small, Medium, and Large.
Selle Italia XL-R Superflow L - Men's
The XL-R Superflow L saddle is part of Selle Italia's off-road lineup featuring lightweight yet sturdy construction and a shape optimized for racking up miles and miles of singletrack with comfortable support. It has a forward-slanting nose for comfort while climbing, paired with a large center cutout designed to reduce pressure and improve bloodflow in the perinal area for long days in the saddle. At 145mm wide, this is the wider option of the two X-LR Superflow offerings.
With rails constructed from a blend of titanium and stainless steel, the XL-R Superflow L provides some shock absorption on rough trails while managing to improve durability and shed some weight compared to traditional saddle rails. The cushy double-density padding further mutes trail chatter and has a softer tip for uphill comfort, with higher density padding under the sit bones for more support when you're mashing on the pedals. The Fibra-Tek cover ensures longevity for years to come while helping keep the weight down, and comes with reinforced edges to protect the side of the saddle against impacts.
Hi i'm rob with me. And today the cell italia slr superflow. In both the 130 and the 145 the. Superflow might be cell italia's most. Revolutionary saddle since the creation of the flight in the early 90s it. Signifies a change but just five years. Ago the company was on the fence as to whether sit bone with mattered when it came to saddle fit and there was a lot. Of discussion internally as to whether cut outs actually made a difference for. Numbness or soft tissue pressure we now have one model available in two. Different sizes we have the 130 and the. 145 this signifies that the company has. Finally caved to the notion that not one. Size for every rider but that one model. Should be made in a variety of sizes to. Provide comfort for different riding positions and different sit bone widths it also comes with their largest cut out. They've ever made it starts just behind. The nose and goes almost all the way to. The rear the cut at the front is just under 19 millimeters wide and gets as. Wide as 34.7 at the rear and is a. Whopping 194 millimeters in length it's. Almost the entire length of the saddle and it's a first for them it's covered. In their standard high density eva padding so while it's firm it provides. Just enough sit bone support and give so. That as not to fatigue you and it's wrapped in genuine leather the shell. Features their 30 percent carbon. Composite with titanium rails connected. So there's a little bit of give which provides additional comfort and it's extremely lightweight in the 130 we see. Most riders with an aggressive position or narrow sit bones and this is going to. Standard for the slr shape now if you. Need a wider saddle slightly more upright position or slightly wider sit bones and previously weren't able to fit on the slr you have the 145 it's 15. Millimeters wider and it is intended to meet the riders who other i found the smaller slr shape of the past to be too narrow and didn't provide.

Selle Italia SP-01 Tekno Superflow Saddle - Men's
The SP-01 Tekno Superflow Saddle is the lightest option in Selle Italia's Special Performance line of saddles. By using high-modulus carbon fiber rails paired with a full carbon shell, Selle Italia is able to achieve a feathery weight of 140g (S3 width) while retaining the adaptive rear frame design that allows independent flexing of the left and right sides of the saddle. This design allows the saddle to more comfortably support the alternating movements of your hips while pedaling, without compromising stability during more intense efforts. This technology is paired with a large center cutout that relieves perineal pressure and improves blood flow to the area, helping to reduce numbness or pain on big days in the saddle.
Oval carbon rails offer some vibration damping to smooth rough roads, while the carbon shell provides plenty of support for hard intervals or sprints. The full carbon construction keeps the weight impressively low, but it does mean this saddle comes with an advised 90kg (198lb) weight limit and is recommended for road cycling use only. The SP-01 Tekno Superflow Saddle comes in two sizes to accommodate most rider's sit bone widths, and uses Selle Italia's signature Fibra-Tek microfiber cover that resists tearing and abrasion for outstanding long-term durability.
I'm here with massimo from cellar italia. And he's gonna tell us a bit more about some of their new saddles this year we present two important sellers the first one is the spc r1 is a new we say the. New year of the design because in this case we have a saddle with a flow system. Just go on the back and not on the one. The front as the other set off for sale italia our laboratory study allowed to. Have this saddle coming from the automotive designer so it's very cool in. Terms of style design very high in terms. Of material and technology and it's. Helped the rider to have two different kinds of comfort the first one is thanks to the super flow system sorry just to be clear the same price system is the kind of the cutout on the in the middle of the saddle besides the rider to spread out.
