"The new super-light SLR Racing Replica saddle is hitting the road. The same applies to an expanded roster of pro teams that will race aboard Selle Italia saddles across the WorldTour and ProTeam ranks next season. At just over 100 grams, the new SLR Racing Replica sits squarely in the "no compromises" performance camp, bringing technology developed under professional riders to cyclists chasing race-day performance on their own local roads."
"At the heart of the saddle sits a carbon fiber skeleton integrated directly into the shell, a structure produced in collaboration with Austrian composite specialist Fibionic. That internal carbon structure allows Selle Italia to reduce the shell thickness to just 1.5 mm while maintaining stiffness and trimming weight without sacrificing power transfer. Combined with redesigned carbon rails and streamlined EVA padding, the result is responsiveness and efficiency."
Selle Italia introduced the SLR Racing Replica saddle with weights of 109 g for S3 and 113 g for L3. The saddle incorporates a carbon fiber skeleton integrated into a 1.5 mm shell developed with Fibionic to increase stiffness while cutting weight and preserving power transfer. Redesigned carbon rails and streamlined EVA padding enhance responsiveness and efficiency. The saddle length is shortened to 242 mm, about 6 mm less than the previous generation and closer to UCI limits. Rear padding has been reduced after pressure-mapping showed minimal contact in aggressive positions, yielding a cleaner, more compact race platform.
