Selle SMP Nymber Carbon Saddle Black, 139mm

All of the saddles in the Selle SMP range feature a striking shape that's responsible for the comfort that many cyclists aren't able to find in other saddles.

Furthermore, the shape reduces overall pressure on the coccyx, increasing long-range comfort, especially over rougher roads.
