Selle ItaliaSLR Boost Gravel TI316 Superflow Saddle(Return to Product Page)

i have used SLR saddles for 15 years on every bike, but my favorite version was discontinued years ago and is now almost impossible to find even used. cutout saddles have always bothered me due to being able to feel the edges of the cutout. this saddle is the perfect shape, and while i can still tell there is a hole, it hasn't been a bother yet after a couple of test rides. I also appreciate the thicker padding now that i am older and the majority of my rides are mixed terrain. The price is higher than i'd prefer, so i'm not going to jump at putting one of these on all my bikes yet, but so far i am happy with the purchase.

I know saddles are subjective but this is The One. Have one on my road bike and loved it so much, got another for my gravel rig and embarked on a 3 day 250 mile bikepacking trip with no break-in period. It was a bit of a gamble, but paid off: not saddle issues of any kind. If I had more bikes, I'g get this saddle for them too.

I have struggled with saddle sore for a long time. I did try various (5+) saddles, including Flite, but none of them worked well. SLR Boost Gravel turns out to be the best one. I didn't choose the non-Gravel one because I think the extra cushion in Gravel could help to mitigate the saddle sore. Super happy with it.

Life long SLR rider racer, switched three days before ninety mile with nine thousand foot climbing epic gravel race/ride. Simply wish I had switched sooner. Bought a second SLR Boost Gravel for my other bike the very next day!

Road and gravel bikes both now have this saddle, combined about 8,000miles. Love this saddle!

Thoroughly enjoy this saddle after approximately 2500miles
