Selle Italia SLR Advan Saddle - Opal White Limited Edition 2026

Selle Italia SLR Advan Opal White – Performance and Compact Design

The SLR Advan Opal White is the perfect balance between cutting-edge engineering and elite aesthetics. This limited edition model adopts a compact design and modern technologies to offer a versatile solution for demanding cyclists seeking speed, long-distance comfort, and a remarkable iridescent finish.

Advanced Technology and Lightness
Designed to dominate the road, the SLR Advan integrates high-quality materials:

• Carbon Powered Shell: The saddle base is made of high-quality carbon and nylon composite, offering optimal stiffness for power transfer while remaining lightweight.
• Tubular Steel Rails: These rails offer an excellent weight/performance ratio. Their tubular structure effectively absorbs road vibrations for a smoother and more comfortable ride.
• Iridescent Opal White Finish: This exclusive coating transforms your bike into an exceptional piece thanks to its reflections that change with the light.

Ergonomics and Comfort

• Superflow Technology: The wide central cutout drastically reduces pressure in the perineal area, ensuring total comfort even during the most demanding rides.
• Neutral Shape (Anatomical): Its design provides adapted support for a large majority of cyclists, whether they have dynamic or static pelvic rotation.
• Lightweight Padding: Based on idmatch system results, padding placement has been optimized at the most used contact points and reduced in less stressed areas without compromising comfort.

Technologies

• High resistance steel rails: Material chosen for its excellent weight/performance ratio and superior vibration absorption.
• Superflow: Superflow technology drastically reduces pressure in the perineal area for long-lasting comfort.
• Carbon Powered: Shell made of carbon composite and high-quality nylon polymer for maximum stiffness.
• Neutral Shape: Anatomical shape offering adapted support for both cyclists with anterior pelvic rotation (dynamic) and those with posterior rotation (static).
• Minimal Padding: Padding optimized at the most used contact points and lightened on less sensitive areas.

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, 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.
