5.0 out of 5 stars Great for endurance rides
Looking for a saddle to replace the Terry on my road bike, I’ve tried quite a few before coming across this Selle Italia Novus Supeflow. After getting the fit just right and test riding it for about 50 miles without issues or discomfort, I knew I finally found the perfect road bike saddle. It is very comfortable and does not put me in an awkward riding position nor force my hips to rotate. My sit-bone measurement is in the 142mm range so the 149mm is the correct width for me.This saddle’s appearance is probably not going to win any beauty contest but the build quality is excellent. It does make a creaking sound for the first few miles. The creak comes from the insertion point where the rail mates with the shell. It creaks when the rail flexes from the weight applied (sit) on the saddle. This is normal for new saddles and should go away within 20 or so mile break-in ride.Keep in mind, bike saddle choices are very rider specific. A perfect saddle for one might be the worst for another. Proper adjustment (fore/aft/tilt/height) are also very important. You will need to try and ride it for yourself to see if it is the right saddle for you. I have over 100 miles and counting on this saddle and have no complaints. It is very comfortable, well-constructed and just the perfect saddle for long endurance rides.
5.0 out of 5 stars No break in needed.
In the past I've mostly purchased fairly inexpensive saddles, $50-75 and had decent luck. I wanted to upgrade and found a deal on this Selle Italia and watched several bike-fitters recommend it on youtube. For $95 I was very pleased. Comfortable from the first sit. I really like the cut-out towards the nose of the saddle. And, yes, I realize that for some, $95 still falls into the category of inexpensive saddles. But I don't need carbon or titanium rails. Just something that lets me ride 25 up to 100 miles in comfort.
4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good
Measured my sit bones and they are narrower than my butt would suggest. Luckily the Selle Italia small works for me. The cut out is nice and it has reduced perineal pressure significantly. On 60+ mile rides I do pretty alright with normal moving about on the saddle but it has not eliminated numbness. "Riding the rivet" is reasonably comfortable, riding on the back end upright is also comfortable.Downsides: it is loud. The split nose allows for a lot of creak and a bit of motion (which is on its own pretty nice but concerns me in terms of longevity). The saddle nose is longer than I might otherwise like but it doesn't get in the way the way I thought it might.Just a couple of hundred miles in and some of the plastic has broken off (no crashes or drops, just riding). Does not speak well to durability.
5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, a seat that doesn't cause pain!
I am a road cyclist who typically rides 20-50 miles per ride. I have tried a ton of seats and inevitably around mile 10 my private area would be in agonizing pain. I tried different seats, different angles and heights, sitting in different positions, and still there was pain. I did a ton of reading about professional female cyclists and found that this was an extraordinarily common problem and some women even had surgery to alter their private area to try to reduce pain. I was resigned that this was the fate of female cyclists and began smearing on a topical a numbing ointment on myself pre-ride. I decided to give this seat a shot and it's like the the answer I never thought would come. This seat perfectly fits my sit bones and relieves the pressure and pain on my private area. I can ride upright or on the drop bars for many miles and have no pain!! The channel perfects allows me me to sit in a way that there is no pressure or rubbing. I love this seat and it is - as you would expect from Selle - incredibly well made.
5.0 out of 5 stars Blessed Relief!!
Haha I didn’t know how much this saddle would change my life. I’m training for another 1/2 IRONMAN and for some reason, my normal road bike saddle was killing me. I would be in extreme pain by mile 15. On a whim I bought this saddle and when it arrived, I almost sent it back without trying it. But I was desperate, so I tried it out. I road 60 miles on it yesterday and I almost cried with relief and joy that I felt so extremely comfortable the entire time! I don’t know exactly how it helps, but it does! There were no intense pressure points, just an all over comfortable support.I didn’t measure my sit bones, just measured my old saddle width and thought the small was closest. When it arrived, I thought it was too narrow, but it worked great! I’m 6 feet—tall, athletic build.
1.0 out of 5 stars Saddle cracked
What I thought was a noisy saddle (according to other reviews) with a cracking sound, turned out to be cracks on the bottom side of the saddle on the sides that support weight. Seems like a generalized issue. Be careful and avoid an accident. DO NOT BUY!
5.0 out of 5 stars Comfy for long rides
I looked so many for my husband and this one is definitely the one. No pain for his private area, and is comfortable. Perfect for long rides!
4.0 out of 5 stars Overall reasonable price and comfort
The price was fair for the fit and comfort. I do agree with those that stated their saddle started creaking after a little use. Mine started creaking after a few weeks of use. I don’t notice it while I ride. It is more when I push down on the seat when moving or lifting the bike. Not sure what to think of it. Doesn’t appear to affect the function. Just completed a 350 mile gravel ride with no complaints.
