The Selle San Marco Bioaktive Sportive Gel Saddle redefines comfort and performance for cyclists who demand more from their rides. Crafted with a sophisticated blend of gel inserts and biofoam padding, this saddle adapts dynamically to your pelvis movements, reducing pressure and shock impact where it matters most. Available in both small (150mm) and large (170mm) sizes, it caters perfectly to different riding styles, whether you prefer longer journeys or shorter, more frequent trips.
Designed for versatility, the Bioaktive Sportive Gel saddle suits all road and off-road disciplines, offering durability and a water-repellent surface thanks to its closed-cell biofoam. Its polypropylene shell and steel/carbon rail provide a robust yet lightweight foundation, while the Softfeel Black Suede cover adds a touch of premium comfort and style. Handmade by Selle San Marco, a trusted Italian brand since 1935, this saddle combines heritage craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology.
Whether you’re an occasional rider or a dedicated enthusiast, choosing the right size ensures an optimal experience: the compact padding of the small saddle supports endurance, while the larger option offers a plusher, cushioned ride. The Bioaktive Sportive Gel is more than a saddle—it's a tailored solution to elevate every mile you ride.
How do I decide between the small and large sizes?
The small (150mm) saddle is ideal for longer rides and frequent cyclists who prefer a more compact padding, while the large (170mm) offers extra cushioning perfect for shorter trips or casual riders.
What materials are used in the saddle construction?
The saddle features a polypropylene shell, steel/carbon rails, biofoam padding combined with gel inserts, and a Softfeel Black Suede cover for durability and comfort.
