One glance at the Selle SMP Stratos will tell you that this saddle is a bit different. That odd shape is 100% dedicated to relieving the pressure that most road bike saddles place on your genitals and pudendal nerve areas, causing numbness and discomfort. The Selle SMP Stratos’ pronounced central channel eliminates numbness to reduce fatigue. the unique beak shape provides a flat base while sitting, but reduces pressure on the genital area. The rear of the saddle is raised to provide an optimized position during hard pedaling.
The Stratos is made with a nylon/carbon composite shell for efficient power transfer and an engineered flex for comfort. The stainless steel rails also provide mild shock and vibration absorption. The saddle’s foam elastomer padding is wrapped in supple leather or Lorica, depending on which version you choose.

Good comfort, annoying product labeling
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
Most comfortable saddle for me after trying many others, however, they're certainly overpriced. Furthermore, the raised stitched lettering all over the saddle is quite annoying, both aesthetically and functionally. It could increase friction where you don't want it. Totally unnecessary to have so much advertising all over the saddle. There's even a reflective plastic piece at the back of the saddle with Selle prominently displayed. Finally, the leather is a bit thin and fragile, showing significant wear after 1 year.

SMP for the win
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I've been an avid SMP saddle user for quite some time. I find them to be the most comfortable saddles I have used to date. In the SMP line up I can ride a couple of the saddles and depending on the bike is how I choose which one. Century rides or Trainer = SMP Stratos Fat Bike = Stratos Enduro bike = Drakon Road Bike for crits = Drakon Now just recently I have been riding the Blaster and really love it, I feel that will be my new saddle for the road bike. The reason I have the Drakon as I wanted a saddle that would allow me to slide up a bit when going on break aways or get over the cranks a little more prepping for that big sprint and the Stratos was not allowing me to do that like I wanted. Now that I have the Blaster I feel that will be the new road saddle and even take over for the mountain bike as well. For Reference Cat 2 Road 5'9" 32" inseam 34" waist 175lbs
