Established in 1897, Selle Italia knows a thing or two about making saddles. Since its inception in 2000, the SLR profile has become hugely popular in the pro ranks. In fact, according to Selle Italia it is the most demanded saddle by professional cyclists.
We found the actual weight was 4g heavier than the claimed 170g, but it is still a light perch, thanks in part to the carbon-fibre body.
