SELLE SMP - THE REVOLUTION OF THE SADDLE
In order to create the SMP4BIKE range Selle SMP set a fundamental objective: Reduce pressure on the perineum and the consequent pressing of neuro-vascular structures in order to decrease the incidence of genitourinary problems and disorders in cyclists. To pursue this objective they set further goals: their saddles must have innovative design and top quality. Research and development activities led to defining exclusive patents with regard to shape, curvature and the dimensions of the various parts that make up the saddle.
1: CENTRAL CHANNEL the result of extensive biomechanic studies on saddle positioning and on the structure of the human pelvis, it is distributed over the whole length of the saddle, from the rear to the tip. Whatever the position assumed by the cyclist,it avoids compression of the perineal structures, preventing on the one hand the risk of vein, artery and capillary occlusion (erectile dysfunction, anorgasmia and urination difficulties), and on the other hand, the occurrence of nerve injury (among the most common being tingling and numbness).
2: "EAGLE BEAK" TIP designed to allow the rider to adopt even extremely low positions on the handlebars that involve an increased prone rotation of the pelvis, comfortably and without crushing of the uro-genital area. The exclusive shape of the nose also constitutes an ideal support base for the classic "thrust" style of pedaling
3: REAR DEPRESSION protects the coccyx from bruises and shocks caused by the roughness of the terrain.
4: FRAME LENGTH the saddle is by far the part that most influences the cycling position. The SMP saddle seat tube offers the widest adjustment range and allows any person to find the perfect forward/backward saddle positioning, like on a made to measure bike.
5: SITTING POSITION is shared between the buttocks, the ischial tuberosities and the high branch of the ischium. Depending on its anatomical configuration you can choose from 15 different configurations of shape and padding.
Selle SMP has 4 international patents developed "in collaboration with a medical team of urologists and andrologists * and supported by studies published in the "Journal of Sexual Medicine". *G.

ABOUT SELLE SMP - 100% MADE IN ITALY
From 1947 through to today, Selle SMP is the world leader in the ergonomic saddle sector and sells its products in over 50 countries. Selle SMP revolutionised the way of conceiving bicycle saddles. The cyclist is at the center of the project and ergonomic studies have analyzed the positions used when riding and the interaction of the various parts of the body with the saddle. Over 65 years have gone by, but each single saddle is still fully made in the Veneto region.
Considerably the best medically proven saddle in the industry.
