Selle Royal Scientia A1 Athletic saddle

With its outstanding design based on a Scientific Research, this saddle guarantees the ultimate level of comfort that fits perfectly the Atlethic rider with less than 11cm of ischial variation. Padded with the 3D skingel, specifically positioned in the Central Reservoir for the soft tissues, it avoids shocks due to the innovative Curva Suspension.


Technologies

Curva Suspension
The unique curved suspension design is attached at the rear of the base to offer exclusive comfort by avoiding pressure on the seat bone contact points and guaranteeing additional lateral flexibility.

3D SkinGel
Royalgel™ is placed intelligently at critical points of contact on the saddle surface for added shock absorption, while reducing overall saddle weight.

Central Resevoir
Indentation in the saddle middle whose shape and dimensions have been studied to correspond to ischial variations for greater comfort.

Rear Plateau
An elevated rear section to prevent backward sliding and decrease pressure in the saddle middle which can cause discomfort.

Body Contour
A radius-specific design to provide optimum comfort for differing spine angles. The more inclined the Riding Position, the smaller the edge-radius.

Scientia
The first range of ergonomic saddles based on exhaustive studies together with the Sport University of Cologne, to unmask the fundamental design characteristics essential to optimising well-being and overall cycling performance.
