Selle Royal Respiro, Unisex Bike Seat with Ventilation Channel for Extra Comfort

Made of high-quality materials and very comfortable. Makes my Specialized Roll even better! Lightweight compared to many options in this category. I would buy it again without hesitation.

I recommend this seat and would purchase again.

I have been testing a lot of saddles looking for the right one for my rear. I tried several Terry models, some no names from China, every seat we already had in our garage from every bike my husband bought for himself or the kids. I have come to the conclusion that I need a big cutout in the middle, which this seat definitely has, and that I can't do without some padding, which this seat also has. I tried it out for an hour on the trainer and the results were encouraging. So I put it on the tandem and we tried it for a 30 mile road ride, and that went well also. So I moved it to the gravel tandem and we tried it on a 40 mile ride. The wind was not kind, and our average speed was low, and we were on the bike for 3.5 hours. My rear was very unhappy with me for most of that time, and is still unhappy 2 days later. I had a prior 'favorite seat' before this one, but I do not know whether my rear would have been happier on that seat than this one, or if the recovery would have been shorter. I do know that I did not feel any numbness during the ride, and I wasn't riding a chamois (I usually don't, I've got a lot of padding without).I am not sure my posture on the tandem is quite down to the 'athletic' angle this seat is made for--I tried the women's moderate version of this seat and decided it was too wide at the back. This one is better in that respect, but I'm not sure if gel is really the material I'm looking for--my other favorite uses memory foam. My husband says that with this seat, the complaints I have sound like newbie-needs-to-get-used-to-it kind of complaints rather than the uniquely fat person complaints I had before. We shall see once my butt is ready to ride again.

This Saddle is exaclty what I was looking for. I weigh around 160 lb, and I am a little boney. I commute at least 70 miles a week on a flat bar urban commuter bike. I only have about 36 miles of riding in with this saddle, but I think it is fair to say that it is definitely a keeper. It is quite comfortable. It is not too soft, and not too firm. The covering keeps the rain out, and is not slippery. It has a very unique and attractive look to it. It also seems to be of great quality. I think it will last me a long time. I would definitely buy this again. I bought a Sell Royal saddle for my wife's bike years ago, and it has held up extremely well. I liked the feel and quality of it, which is why I decided on the same brand.

This feels like you're riding your bike on a couch. it's amazing. The cooling functionality isn't really noticeable but I guess it's better than nothing. it's a bit heavy but def worth it. You can remove the mesh on the cooling part of it to make it better. If you care about your butt health, definitely get this.

Cracked the pan and the side within 3 months of purchase. Past the 30 day window, so no return. Otherwise comfortable. Would prefer to not have to buy a new seat every several hundred miles. One star.

This is a much more comfortable seat than stock one.Suggestion to manufacturer: please make the underside of the seat flat.The plastic bump with the "SELLE ROYAL" logo under the seat prevents proper mounting of mud guards like "Mucky Nutz Butt Fender". That bump angles the fender down into the wheel. I have to cut that bump off on my seats (it serves no structural purpose) and that allows the fender to mount properly and not touch the wheel when the seat is dropped.

I have been trying many saddles over the years, looking for one with the best comfort, and least discomfort, on longer rides as well as indoor training riding. Without a doubt, this is the best of many I have tried. I first got a Selle Royale for upright riding on my Strida folding bike, on which you feel every bump in the road, and became a quick believer in their royal gel technology. Gave it a shot on my road bike with this one, absolutely no regrets. I'm going to get a couple more for sure.

è gia la seconda sella uguale che acquisto, dopo aver consumato la prima dopo ben 4 anni di duro impiego, per tutto l'anno. E' comodissima, sia d'estate che d'inverno

Installée sur mon VTT, très confortable, aucune compression du périnée, ni aucune gêne, frottements etc Ni trop fine ni trop large, bien aérée.

Im Gegensatz zu üblichen Gelsätteln führt die Belüftung bei Hitze dazu, dass man noch angenehm fahren kann und nicht im eigenen Saft schmort

Top rate din reviews - and suits me , so very pleased on first ride outs and would recommend

Muy muy buena calidad una maeavilla lo recomiendo
