Review of SMP Composite Saddle
(Click
here for Daniel's full article)
".........I was supplied with a nice looking Composite saddle that is
shown here in the picture and had this mounted in conjunction
with a bike-fit and raced on during the US racing season and
when I represented New Zealand at the Deaflympics. I was amazed
at how snug it felt during my first race. When I was on the
rivet, I was able to slide forward into a position that is more
conducive to power riding. SMP claim that the beak of the
saddle nose
is “designed to supply a flat base for efforts when sitting for long climbs that have to be faced and
as a help in downhill slopes, offering greater thigh
control of the bicycle”. When you actually try this saddle out,
you will realize that the claims by Selle SMP have a very solid
foundation with their award-winning design and function.
The Composite saddle has no padding, only has thin leather covering,
and one would think this would add to the discomfort. However my
experience with this saddle, provided it is fitted correctly, is
that it is very comfortable. Since my conversion to SMP, I have
not experienced any numbness during training due to the central
channel of the saddle. This area is big enough to slide your
whole hand through. The rationale behind this is that it
“prevents crushing of the anus, prostate, vanae pudendae, deep
dorsal vein and artery of the penis, scrotum and testicles in
men, and the labia majora and minora and the clitoris, in
women”. You can investigate for yourself and see the difference
if you are still searching for that perfect saddle for long
rides and racing........"
