The Selle SMP F30 Black Saddle is designed for cyclists with medium to wide sit bones who want a stable, supportive saddle that still allows freedom of movement and efficient pedalling. Built using premium materials and Selle SMP’s patented ergonomic shaping, the F30 delivers reliable comfort and control across long rides, varied terrain, and high‑intensity efforts.

Sold by select specialist bike shops, the F30 is frequently recommended during professional bike fitting sessions and premium bicycle servicing across Queensland, particularly for riders seeking extra rear support without excessive padding.


Ergonomic Design with Maximum Freedom of Movement

The F30 features Selle SMP’s distinctive anatomical profile, engineered to support natural pelvic alignment while reducing pressure on sensitive areas. Its larger rear platform offers stable sit‑bone support while still allowing the rider to move freely on the saddle during climbing, acceleration, and technical riding.

This balance makes the F30 well suited to:

  • Road cycling and endurance rides
  • Gravel and cyclocross
  • Cross‑country and marathon MTB
  • Urban commuting and fixed‑gear bikes

It is compatible with both traditional bicycles and e‑bikes.


Thin Foamed Elastomer Padding for Balanced Comfort

The saddle uses thin foamed elastomer padding, providing a supportive feel with light shock absorption. This level of padding is ideal for riders who want comfort on longer rides without the softness that can reduce efficiency or stability.

Bike fitters often favour thin‑padding saddles like the F30 for riders with good pedalling technique who prefer a firm, planted position.


Fit Profile for Medium to Wide Sit Bones

The Selle SMP F30 is designed for cyclists with a sit bone width from 11.6 to 15.0 cm, typically fitting riders who wear M, L, XL or XXL cycling shorts. It is a unisex saddle, suitable for both men and women, and is often selected during bike fitting for riders who need a wider support base.


Durable, Lightweight Construction Options

The saddle body is built from carbon‑reinforced nylon 12, delivering strength, durability, and controlled flex. Riders can choose between rail options depending on usage and weight goals:

  • AISI 304 stainless steel rails for durability and everyday reliability
  • Unidirectional carbon rails for reduced weight and performance‑focused builds

This makes the F30 equally at home on training bikes and lighter performance setups.


Premium Materials and Italian Craftsmanship

The black version features a real leather cover, offering durability and a refined finish that complements modern road and gravel bikes. Coloured versions are finished with high‑quality microfiber. Each F30 saddle reflects Selle SMP’s Italian craftsmanship and attention to ergonomic detail.
