To relieve the seat area, the various manufacturers work with different shapes, recesses, surfaces, designs and not least special women's saddles. Every buttocks is different and in addition to the anatomical conditions and personal preferences, the weight distribution of the rider between handlebar and saddle also plays a role. When choosing the right saddle, therefore, not only the width to fit the sit bone distance, the padding and optics should play a role, but also the intended use of your bike. The more upright the riding position, the wider the saddle. The more athletic the riding position, the more comfortable a narrower model can be. It also plays a role whether you wear bib-shorts with seat padding. Not for every use is lush padding the way to more comfort.

In our shop you will find a wide range of saddles for different bikes with a special focus on road bikes and classic bikes. If you are looking for a classic road bike saddle, we have classics like the Turbo saddle or the Flite 1990 from Selle Italia.

The Cambium range from Brooks is made from a type of natural rubber and is characterized by great comfort and high quality. In addition, you have the advantage over classic leather saddles that the saddle can get wet without damage. For classic sporty saddles, especially road bike saddles, we prefer the models of Fabric. These saddles not only impress with their light weight and appealing shape, but are also processed to a high standard. The saddles are available in different widths, heights and rails.
The choice of width and height of the saddle depends on your physique. To select the perfect saddle, a measurement is offered. Most rails are made of CroMo or aluminum. The higher quality saddles usually already come with rails made of titanium and carbon, which can significantly reduce the weight while maintaining stability. When mounting saddles with carbon rails, it is especially important to pay attention to the manufacturer's specifications, otherwise they could be damaged. If you ride really long distances, in addition to a suitable and comfortable saddle is definitely a good bib shorts. These increase the comfort again significantly and relieve your body especially on long distances noticeable. For the comfort on the bike, not only the saddle, but also the clothing is crucial.
