Selle Royal Respiro Relaxed, Unisex Bike Seat with Ventilation Channel for Extra Comfort, Black, One Size

Replaced the old seat on my road bike.

This saddle uses quality materials mated to precision manufacturing. However, despite the apparent quality, the design of the saddle does not suit my anatomy. The rounded top reduces the actual width of the saddle; it's noticeable narrower than the stated spec. As a result saddle cuts into my thighs unless I sit way, way forward.I wanted to like this saddle. In the end, however, it just wasn't for me. I rated it 4 stars because of the excellent construction and materials. Saddles are personal. I'm sure the design will suit many riders.

I am an older man and this seat provides that extra comfort level I need I also like the vent in the middle of the seat. Everything about it shows the quality and style that is built into it. Highly recommended for anyone who is uncomfortable on the traditional racing style seats provided on today's bikes.

I purchased two of these seats, one in June and the other in July. The original seat I bought in June was very comfortable and suitable for long rides. However, after a few uses, I noticed a small hole developing, which has since expanded significantly. I've been covering it with duct tape. Despite this issue, I appreciated the comfort of the seat and decided to order a second one, hoping for better quality thinking the quick failure was a fluke. Unfortunately, the second seat developed two holes after just two rides, not lasting even 100 miles. I find these seats to be incredibly fragile, as they should withstand normal use without damage. I am now faced with the cost of two seats and need to find a replacement that will hopefully be more durable. I am left wondering how these seats can perform well for others beyond just a few hours of use. I highly recommend not buying this seat if you plan to use the bike for normal riding.

Though it's bigger, it's pretty comfortable on my around town bike.

Awesome seat! Once (easily) adjusted, it is very comfortable for the casual rider. Seating discomfort disappears and is no longer a riding distraction. Highly recommended.

Does not do well for long rides in a athletic, moderate nor a relaxed position. Kept trying to change my bars and angle of the seat but nothing helps each ride I test on these seats have been between 25-35 miles long and wearing athletic clothing to reduce chafing. The wider relaxed seat rubs on the back of the thigh which while it doesn't cause issues rn will eventually. Spent a lot of money trying this brand out by buying 2 seats and neither worked for me.I tried moderate and relaxed seat versions tho I usually ride in a moderate position I also adjusted for each position (aggressive, moderate, somewhat relaxed)

Highly recommend, very happy, no more sore ass for days

Very comfortable, but rather heavy at 835g (width 220mm). I can tell there is memory foam included. I tried the Respiro Moderate and the other one, but not right for me. The slope of the saddle is very important; for me, I slope the front up a little for my fairly upright position. At least with these Selle Royale, they can be slid back and forth for the best riding position - unlike others like the YoungDo(580g) or Velmia(770g). I ride for long rides around 5 to 8 hours.

Ich hatte schon viele andere Sättel probiert, auch von gleichen Hersteller, dieser ist nun endlich GUT.
