All saddles are available in an elegant white. The SLR Boost, especially in size S3, has been tested over several thousand kilometers and convinces with a weight of only 124 grams for the 130 millimeter variant. This light design is supported by high -quality processing.

The saddle cover of the SLR Boost consists of robust FIBRA-TEK microfibers, which have no signs of wear and tear even after several months. The shell is made from a combination of carbon fibers and nylon polymer, which grants both robustness and torsional stiffness. The Hochoval carbon frame with the dimensions 7 × 9 millimeters offers a large setting spectrum for individual adjustment to the bike.

Comfort and ergonomics

An outstanding feature of the SLR Boost is the short nose, which promotes effective power transmission and high pedal efficiency, especially when driving up. In addition, the long mid -saving, known as "Superflow", ensures high driving comfort because it relieves the pressure on the dam. Superflow technology ensures a flexible reaction to the uneven substrates and dampens vibrations, which makes the saddle pleasant even on long journeys.

There are no seating problems even at high intensities, which the saddle predestines the saddle, especially for ambitious cyclists. With a price of 314.90 euros, this saddle is classified as rather high -priced, but meets the requirements of the target group after a comfortable, long -distance and light saddle.

Choose the right size

Choosing the saddle size plays a crucial role in comfort. Selle Italia offers the SLR Boost in the latitudes S and L. The letter S identifies a narrower version, suitable for people with an interrochanteric distance below 120 mm, while L stands for a larger distance. Important factors for determining the appropriate saddle width are the measure of ischial support, ideally determined by a visit to the doctor or a bicycle measurement. Missing measurements can be easily bridged with advice at the IDMATCH point.

In addition, the numbers 1, 2 and 3 show the presence or lack of a section in the saddle, whereby size 3 is recommended for people who have excellent pelvic rotation. For less flexible drivers, it is advisable to switch to size 1 in a descending order, which has no excerpt, while size 2 offers a smaller neckline and size 3 a larger one ("superflow").

In summary, the SLR Boost from Selle Italia is a promising racing bike saddle that impresses with construction, comfort and adaptation options. The combination of the latest technology and appealing design makes it a worthwhile investment for enthusiastic cyclists. More information can be found onCycling racing bikeand onSelle Italia.
