the jury is still out

It fits, its pretty damn comfortable but needs to be set up exactly right. It's firmness is spot on, but the deep curve may be a little much. It needs to be dead level or just a degree forward to work imo, and for long distance rides of over 30 miles I'm just not sold, some numbness, but maybe it's just me. Getting on it is like nothing you'll ever experience from a stock saddle, and for the price you can't beat it.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great cut out saddle. Comfortable on long MTB trails.

I replaced an old Selle SMP Plus with this one. It has a little more padding and is extremely comfortable without limiting any movement. I ride relatively smooth long MTB trails on hard tail bike and this saddle is the most comfortable I've ever tried. It is 400g, on the heavier side but the SMP line is by far the best anatomical designed saddles.

Thank you for your feedback.

I am very pleased with my Selle SMP TRK Gel Saddle! It is the most comfortable saddle I've had!!!

I ride aproximately 40 to 50 miles a week on paved trail. The gel really protects the pelvic bones. No more saddle sores.

Thank you for your feedback.

Improved comfort

This is my forth attempt to find a satisfactory saddle and this is by far the best yet for comfort given my BPH challenges. I've ridden this saddle a couple hundred miles with the longest duration of 3 hours and the saddle was excellent.

Thank you for your feedback.

Exactly what I was hoping for.

Had to give this saddle a try after a six week respite from my road bike due to prostate removal surgery. Researched the issue extensively and other cyclists exclaimed their satisfaction with Selle cutout saddles. After installing I went for a short test ride and instantly knew this was going to be a success. No discomfort in the perineum area during or afterwards.

Thank you for your feedback.

Excellent value

Excellent seat, I replaced my stock saddle on my Trek for this. I'm a rather big guy (6'3, 200 lbs) and find this really comfortable. i tried other, more expensive saddles, but this works the best. I can ride a century with no problems.

Thank you for your feedback.

After 2 other seats, this is the first seat that prevented saddle sores during a 6 day tour.

I installed the seat myself on my Trek Silque road bike. I ride in the Appalachian Mountains moving fore and aft on the saddle. It is easy to know when I am in the sweet spot for climbing. For the anatomy, it seems to be a good fit for reducing any pressure on sensitive female anatomy. As a 52 yr old, it is all about comfort. This saddle work well!

Thank you for your feedback.

Very comfortable on the longer rides.

I like to go out on longer rides and on a regular saddle will have some numbness towards the end of my ride. This saddle is more comfortable and I don't have that uncomfortable feeling at the end of my ride.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best seat for long distances

I know this is not ideal but I had to bolt this seat on prior to a century and had the most comfortable ride I have ever had. I had always suffered from pain, numbness and unpleasant after effects with other seats, with this one everything was pain free and functional during and after the ride. Well worth money.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very comfortable saddle for touring

I recently bought a Specialized Diverge Expert and was looking for a comfortable saddle. Most of my riding is on road, paved and some rough unpaved with an average of 25-30 miles. Tried the specialized saddles (avatar & phenom), the fabric scoop radius (143 mm) and fabric cell (155 mm) and finally this saddle. This proved to the most comfortable for me. No achy sit bones. I am 5 feet 11 inches and weigh 170 lbs with a sit bone width of 130-135 mm. The only negative to the SMP is the weight at a hefty 485 g. Otherwise a very comfortable saddle with no aches anywhere. Highly recommended for folks with no natural cushioning and who like riding more upright. Also, a very good price from bikes direct and the saddle was delivered in perfect condition.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great saddle! Bought a second Selle Italia SMP for my 2 bike!

The Selle Italia Extra was recommended to me by my local bike shop manager based on his experience. It was a great recommendation because I had no raw spots or aches from it after my normal 20 mile route. Before, I could hardly sit down after 20 miles with my old saddle. I bought this Selle Italia TRK to put on my road touring bike. Same results after my normal 20 mile route - no raw spots or aches! The design ergonomics are similar for both of these saddles with the center cut relief and the eagle-beak nose. I am an older male rider so comfort and padding are more important to me than weight and speed. They were each under $100 after shipping, and worth the money! Looking forward to pushing my normal 20 mile route further! I highly recommend either of these two Selle Italia saddles!

Thank you for your feedback.

Awesome seat

Bought this for my new trek and I've put about 140 miles a week on it for the last 3 months. It's very comfortable and makes a world of difference on long rides.

Glad I finally tried it!

I ride approx. 50-miles a week, and usually my rump is hurting within the first few miles. After just a couple of rides with this Selle SMP TRK Gel, I found that this seat is the best I have ever had. And it seems to get better with each ride!
