Selle Italia Flite Kit Carbonio Flow Saddle Info
Comfortable saddles do not have to look like the equivalent of orthopedic oxfords. The Selle Italia Kit Carbonio Flow Saddle is a prime example of a light, flash looking seat that will also work to keep your private parts happy.
If you are just discovering the Flite, you should make sure that the dimensions and the curves match your bodyFinding a saddle that flows with your form is importantIf you have questions about fit, you can contact us and we’ll walk you through a version of Selle Italia’s idmatch system, or come to the shop, where we can measure you with the idmatch system tools.
Once you settle on the Flite, then you’ll only have the difficult decision for which of the Flites will fit you and your budget. The Kit Carbonio Flow will slot neatly into the high performance at a reasonable price category, while also offering the extra comfort of the Flow cut-out for those of you who have tired of numb ‘nads at the end of rides. To keep you from feeling unappealingly pinched into the cut-out, an extra layer of padding and Fibratek material ensure the opening of the cut-out will not be too Spartan to cause unwanted pressure points.
The oblong 7x9mm seat rails will also provide a certain dampening to the ride while helping to keep the weight down. Most importantly, they provide a durable interface with the seat post since they are made from what Selle Italia calls CarboKeramic. If you’ve read cautionary tales about buying oval railed saddles, never fear since anything vertical clamping will work with a 7x9 rail, and in any case, nearly every manufacturer of seatposts produces an adapter for carbon rails.
With the usual 145x275mm dimensions, the Selle Italia Kit Carbonio Flow Saddle will give you exceptional sit bone support with a nose length that won’t get hooked up to the back of your shorts or trousers when starting off from a light. You’ll get all this comfort with hardly any weight penalty since it tips the scales at a reasonably light 170 grams.
