Selle Italia SLR Elite Saddle - Opal White Limited Edition 2026

Selle Italia SLR Elite Opal White – The Perfect Balance

The SLR Elite Opal White is the perfect alliance between the iconic design of the SLR family and a modern, bold aesthetic. This high-performance saddle stands out with its iridescent Opal White finish, designed for cyclists seeking professional ergonomics and a unique style without compromising on durability.

Robustness and Riding Comfort
Unlike the ultra-radical carbon versions, the Elite model focuses on a robust structure for intensive daily use:

• High Strength Steel Tubular Rails: These 7 mm diameter rails offer an excellent weight/performance ratio. Their tubular structure effectively absorbs road vibrations, making your rides smoother and less tiring.
• High-Density PU Padding: Combined with shock absorbers integrated into the shell, this padding reduces muscle fatigue during long climbs and endurance rides.
• Carbon Powered Shell: The base of the saddle is made of high-quality carbon and nylon composite, ensuring excellent stiffness for power transfer while maintaining ergonomic flexibility.

Technology and Premium Finish

• Neutral Shape (Anatomical): It offers optimal support whether you have an anterior pelvic rotation (dynamic cyclist) or a posterior one (static cyclist).
• Superflow Technology: The large central cutout drastically reduces perineal pressure, eliminating numbness over long distances.
• Fibra-Tek Cover: An ultra-resistant technical microfiber that guarantees a long lifespan and easy maintenance, even with its unique white color.

Sizing Information

Meaning of the letter

• S or L indicate the width of the saddle. This choice is guided by your intertrochanteric distance (sit bone spacing).
• Size S: Narrow distance (less than 120 mm).
• Size L: Wide distance (greater than 120 mm).
• If in doubt about your measurements, we recommend visiting a specialized idmatch center.
    - NB: It is also possible to identify your sit bone width during a medical visit or a bike fitting.

Meaning of the number

• The numbers 1, 2, and 3 indicate the presence or absence of a hole in the saddle, and the choice is guided by pelvic rotation/body flexibility. For those with excellent pelvic rotation, size 3 is recommended, while for others, it reduces to size 1.
    - 1: Solid saddle (no hole)
    - 2: Medium-sized hole (Flow)
    - 3: Large hole (Superflow), recommended for cyclists with significant pelvic rotation
• "Stiffer" individuals can use size 1, but also 2 and 3. Conversely, it is not recommended for a flexible person to use a saddle without a hole.
