Description
Same Silverado, Just More Comfortable
The revered WTB Silverado saddle has been updated with a shorter 265mm length and new Fusion Form base technology to provide the same comfort you know and love, but with a modern look!
Fusion Form technology allows for fine-tuning the amount of fiber infused into the nylon of each specific saddle model to create a flex profile that balances comfort, support and durability to match the intended use of each individual saddle. The Silverado optimizes efficiency in a forward-leaning pedaling position with a fiber percentage similar to the recently released Gravelier saddle. Fusion Form also allows the padding to be recessed into the base, which provides a sleek aesthetic without actually reducing overall padding thickness.
Who says you can't make the best even better? Pressure mapping technology was used to determine where pinpoint pressures existed on the original Silverado and how to better distribute those pressures to the sit bones. The result is a slightly flatter profile that further reduces perineal pressure. Silverado also now features a shorter 265mm length, which allows for seamless on-off transitions while still providing plenty of room for riders to slide forward and maximize power output on steep climbs.
Features:
- Flat profile allows riders to tilt their pelvis to varying degrees for different riding positions. Flat saddles are best for riders who prefer to utilize different sitting positions along the length of the saddle.
- Silverado now features a shorter 265mm length, which allows for seamless on-off transitions while still providing plenty of room for riders to slide forward and maximize power output on steep climbs. Its shorter length allows riders to get deeper into the cockpit while avoiding interference with the nose of the saddle.
- Small window cut away from the centerline of the saddle base to provide additional relief from pressure on your sensitive areas. Comfort Zone is a subtle difference that provides impressive long-term comfort.
- Thinner padding provides just enough foundational squish to provide support during hard efforts, while also minimizing weight. Thin padding relies on saddle shape and base flex to provide ultimate comfort.
- Found on all WTB saddles, their Microfiber Cover closely replicates the look and feel of a leather cover, but with the anti-microbial and cruelty-free benefits of a synthetic material. The supple nature of the Microfiber Cover allows the foam to fully support the sit bones without interfering with its resiliency.
- Features an integrated mount for securing tools and on-bike storage, located on the underside of the base.

Reviews
�pointing out that it was purchased on sale to replace a saddle on my son�s bike that had suffered a fair amount of insult due to some harsh treatment. Anyway, this seems like a decent saddle for the money and one that should hold up pretty well.
I had an older WTB Deva on my mountain bike bought to replace an old and squeaky Volt. I was getting saddle sores and decided to try the updated Silverado since I had the original one came on my gravel bike and was comfortable. This doesn't really feel any different to me. And, really, 10mm is not much (3/8") and I couldn't even see it laying the two on top of each other. My saddle sore problem was probably seat height related and is now resolved by lowering the seat height about 1/2". This saddle doesn't squeak. It is comfortable to me. I've ridden WTB saddles for decades. They are relatively inexpensive.
