Experience unparalleled comfort and support with the Selle San Marco Bioaktive Trekking Open Fit Gel Saddle, designed for cyclists who value freedom and enjoyment on every ride. Whether you’re exploring city roads or embarking on trekking adventures, this saddle combines advanced materials and anatomical research to deliver lasting comfort and style. Its innovative gel inserts and biodynamic structure work harmoniously to reduce pressure on sensitive areas, ensuring a smooth and pleasant cycling experience.
The saddle’s open-fit design is the result of meticulous clinical testing, featuring a gradual opening that provides exceptional relief in the perineal region. Crafted with a polypropylene shell and finished with a Softfeel Black Suede cover, the Bioaktive Trekking Gel Saddle balances durability and elegance. Choose between two sizes to match your riding habits: the smaller size offers compact padding for longer routes, while the larger size provides more cushioning for shorter, leisurely rides.
Incorporating high-quality materials such as steel/carbon rails and lightweight Biofoam padding, this saddle adapts to the natural movements of your pelvis during pedaling. Biofoam’s closed-cell surface repels water, maintaining comfort and longevity regardless of weather conditions. Handcrafted by Selle San Marco, a trusted Italian brand with a heritage dating back to 1935, this saddle represents the perfect blend of tradition, innovation, and ergonomic design.
What is the difference between the Small and Large sizes?
The Small size, measuring 175mm, features more compact padding ideal for longer rides and frequent use. The Large size at 188mm offers increased cushioning, better suited for shorter or more leisurely trips.
How does the open-fit design improve comfort?
The open-fit design includes a gradual opening in the saddle that relieves pressure in the perineal area, enhancing comfort and reducing numbness during extended rides.
