Selle SMP Hybrid Saddle Black Sports & Fitness Review

Great for my road bike. This is my second hybrid saddle from SMP. The first lasted 8 years. I drive about 3500 km every season.

This should be the lowest SMP saddle. The packaging is cheap. The cover is vinyl, not leather. Slippery, especially when there are bumps in the road.

I had a hard time finding the right position for this seat. I finally took it to a professional bike fitter. It was better then. It is important to position it correctly.

I ride 5,000 miles a year and have been using Selle Hybrid saddles for 10 years with great satisfaction. It's too early to say for sure, but this slightly updated version seems like an improvement.

This is my fourth Selle SMP Hybrid saddle. No they haven't worn out, I've put them on several bikes. I mountain bike for about 2 hours a couple of times a week and this saddle has always been very comfortable. I'm a little old lady so comfort is important.

For context: I ride endurance and regularly spend 5-6 hours in the saddle. After 500 miles this saddle has no visible wear and feels reasonably comfortable. It's ok for a two hour drive, it's ok for a long distance. Of course, this all depends on the width of your sit bones. If it fits you, it should be comfortable. More importantly, I no longer have problems pinching my perineum. My previous saddle had a very slight dip in the middle, but that wasn't enough. This one works much better in that…
