The product in detail.
Present in Flow version. Integrates the main features of the XLR with a dedicated gel padding and a series of details that recall the universe of electric bikes.
The saddle sizes
Currently Selle Italia offers 6 size variants divided into two groups: S1, S2, S3 ... L1, L2, L3. With regard to the specific sizes, the S saddles are all quite narrow, i.e. with a seating point of 131-136 mm wide, while the Ls range from 145 mm to a maximum of 150 mm.
The number associated with the size (1, 2 or 3) then identifies the presence or not of the central hole (flow technology): a special anatomical cut that allows you to unload the seat point, ensuring excellent comfort through greater flexibility in the central part of the saddle. .
The models S1 and L1 are free of the central hole, suitable for cyclists without a high rotation of the pelvis, and therefore do not need to lighten the pressure and friction that are created on the saddle. .
The saddles S2 or L2 have a small central cut, and are suitable for cyclists with an average rotation of the pelvis that during the pedaling produce pressure and clutch: elements that put together increase the temperature on the seat point and can lead to criticality and discomfort at the physical level. .
The third size S3 or L3 is about saddles with wide central hole, recommended to cyclists with a high rotation of the pelvis, which create high pressure and friction on the surface of the saddle. .
Inside the size 3, saddles with SuperFlow technology are also available, i.e. with even wider central hole, for cyclists who prefer a higher feeling of comfort. .
SuperFlow technology in fact, drastically reduces all the discomfort caused by prolonged pressure on the pelvic area, allowing you to always find an optimal and extremely comfortable sitting position. .
GUIDE TO SIZES
- S1 = Intertrochanteric distance and low rotation of the pelvis
- S2 = Intertrochanteric distance and medium rotation of the pelvis (Flow saddles)
- S3 = Intertrochanteric distance \"straight" and high rotation of the pelvis (flow and superflow saddles)
- L1
- L2 = Intertrochanteric distance • wide and medium rotation of the basin (flow saddles)
- L3 = Intertrochanteric distance . wide and high rotation of the basin (flow and SuperFlow saddles)
