Product Description

Selle Italia SLR Carbon Open Road Saddle Black The Selle Italia SLR Carbon Open is the latest evolution of one of road cycling's most iconic saddle designs. Reimagined from the ground up with a refined silhouette, it stays true to the legendary SLR fit that has carried riders to victories at the highest levels of the sport while pushing the boundaries of what a road saddle can weigh and deliver. At just 118 grams in S3 , the SLR Carbon Open is one of the lightest performance road saddles available. A redesigned carbon rail lay-up technique produces rails that are simultaneously thinner, stiffer, and better at absorbing road vibration a combination that translates directly into a more responsive, more comfortable ride over long distances and challenging terrain. The saddle's carbon-reinforced nylon composite shell provides an exceptionally rigid platform that transfers power efficiently on every pedal stroke, while keeping overall weight to an absolute minimum. Where many saddles rely on bulk padding to compensate for a flexy base, the SLR Carbon Open works the other way a stiff shell does the structural work, allowing handmade, minimalist padding to be applied precisely where contact and comfort matter most. Central to the design is the Superflow central cut-out , which relieves pressure in the perineal area during extended efforts particularly valuable when you're riding hard in an aggressive position or pushing deep into a long ride. The neutral anatomical shape makes this saddle genuinely versatile, sitting naturally for both dynamic riders in a low, forward position and those who prefer a more upright, static fit. The SLR Carbon Open isn't just a saddle it's a precision component designed for riders who refuse to choose between speed and comfort.
