Endurance test: Selle Italia SLR TT saddle
The cover of the SLR TT, which weighs just 147 grams, speaks volumes about countless kilometres on muddy trails. The permanently wet trails along the Isar have taken their toll on the race saddle over the months.
With its narrow shape and minimalist padding, the Selle Italia classic is no comfort miracle, but it fulfils its purpose faithfully and, thanks to its titanium struts, can take the odd fall without breaking. For off-road use, rounded edges would be desirable in case of unintentional contact. The well-worn top of the SLR TT, which weighs just 147 grams, speaks volumes about countless kilometres on muddy trails.
CONCLUSIONsuper-light yet stable saddle with minimal comfort that cuts a fine figure on everything from road bikes to downhillers.
