Selle SMP T5 Details

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. Irrespective of the position of the triathlete, it prevents compression of the perineal structures. It promotes very good aeration of the genital area and water drainage.

"Eeagle Beak" Tip:

The exclusive and patented configuration of the nose prevents crushing of the uro-genital area, even at the extremely low positions of the handlebars, typical of the triathlete, and also enables to safely and firmly park the bike on the bike parking tube frame at the transition area.

Rear Logo:

The structure of the characteristic rear Selle SMP logo, with its peculiar reflecting properties, provides optimum support for the bike on the bike parking tube frame at the transition area, should the triathlete prefer rear positioning rather than the front one.

Frame Length:

Offers the widest adjustment range available on the market, giving every person the possibility to identify the perfect position for them in terms of saddle advancement towards the handlebars, typical of triathlon.

Sitting Position:

Guarantees maximum comfort for the specific maximum advancement position on the saddle of the triathlete. The characteristic conformation of the SMP rear depression, although less evident due to the new padding, is preserved also in T models, in order to provide the necessary support while pedaling.
