Aspide Short Open-Fit Saddle - Steel Black Mens Wide

The Aspide Short Open-Fit Saddle is a versatile choice for both road and off-road cycling. It features a Silkfeel cover, which gives a soft, waterproof, and abrasion-resistant surface. The bi-elastic strut material enhances the overall feel. With a carbon fibre reinforced shell, it offers great rigidity, stiffness, and durability without adding too much weight. The carbon steel rails provide a strong connection to your seatpost, whether you're on the tarmac or gravel roads. It comes with Biofoam padding and an open cut-out channel for long-lasting comfort and support. This saddle has a compact shape, 250mm in length, and a large central cut-out (Open-Fit) that ensures maximum comfort and proper support of the ischiatic bones in different pedalling situations. Since 2002, the Aspide has been a top model in the Selle San Marco collection, helping cyclists win World Tour Events. Now, the 'Short' version increases comfort and the pleasure of pedalling. Its Wide Open-Fit design and minimalist lines offer perfect comfort and greater lightness. The slim front allows excellent leg freedom while pedalling, and the rear support helps maintain the riding position. It's suitable for road use and performs well on other terrains too. It's available in two modern fit sizes: 250x139mm (ID-Match Ref: S3) for the narrow option and 250x155mm (ID-Match Ref: L3) for the wide option. The narrow option weighs 265g, and the wide option weighs 270g.

Using this saddle is straightforward. Just attach it to your seatpost using the carbon steel rails. Make sure it's securely fastened to avoid any wobbling during your ride. For road cycling, the saddle's design will give you a comfortable and stable ride. When going off-road, its durability and support will come in handy. As for maintenance, keep it clean by wiping it down with a damp cloth after each ride. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the Silkfeel cover or the Biofoam padding. Store it in a dry place to prevent water damage. Also, check the rails and connections periodically to ensure they're still in good condition. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, it might be time to get it checked or replaced.
