Description

The Gilles Berthoud Soulor racing saddle is manufactured in house from thick natural vegetable tanned leather. It is pre-softened to shorten the break-in period. It is suitable for racing bicycles and other bicycle with a somewhat ''aggressive'' riding position. The bolt assemblies at the rear of the saddle are situated behind the area on which the cyclist sits. No risk of damaging your cycling shorts or your skin! Backplate made of technical material providing solidity and flexibility for maximum comfort. Easy to disassemble thanks to an ingenious system of stainless steel bolts which fit into special-shaped brass washers. The cone-shaped washers fit snuggly into the leather avoiding any risk of damage. Rails made of polished stainless spring steel. The rails have a relatively long straight part giving saddle setback adjustment. Patented tension system. No special tool is required to adjust the tension, a 5mm Allen key is enough. Each saddle is individually marked with an unique serial number etched on the brass washer on top of the nose. The leather density fluctuates between hides so the saddle weight can vary.ass washer on top of the nose. The leather density fluctuates between hides so the saddle weight can vary.

Manufacturer's note:

Manifesto for natural Leather

We use only the best vegetable tanned, full grain, unaltered leather. Meaning that the grain (top of the saddle) is not sanded or modified, so all the marks and creases on the hide remain visible. We like those marks and refuse any kind of standardization or uniformity but also don´t want to waste such fine material. Our top priority is the mechanical properties of the leather and if there are marks on a perfect piece, we refuse to waste it. Each piece is different and beautifully imperfect, and each will make a unique saddle: yours.
