Super product, would buy again any time.

- Kerstin, 26 December, 2023

We both ride the Respiro saddle, my husband for men, and I ride the side saddle. Now 6 years and 15,00 kilometres have passed, and now the top has gone. It was a good purchase, and it prevents pain at the PO, also thanks to its special construction. We will always buy it again if necessary. Mine has now travelled 17,500 km and is still in perfect condition. Thank you for such a hard-wearing product. Kerstin Popall

Silicone pads deformed, plastic attachment broke.

- Ivan, 11 November, 2023

I wanted a saddle a city bike, resistant to rain. While the silicone pads were not soaking wet after rain, they still deformed and became hard to ride. The plastic attachment was also to weak and broke after less than a year. Not worth the money.

Pros & Cons

Not very comfortable
Plastic attachment broke
Silicone pads deformed after one season

Better than an ordinary touring saddle

- Bart, 30 October, 2023

Used to road bike saddles, so any other kind of saddle feels strange. But for commuting, I think this is ok for half an hour of cycling.

Pros & Cons

Not too soft
Slightly wide

sits well, but not sustainably.

- Martijn, 20 April, 2023

Sits fine

- Peter, 11 January, 2023

It takes a little getting used to having only 2 cushions at the seat bones, but then you experience less pressure in the middle and therefore no complaints but as pressure on the perineum, no more tingling or sleeping private parts and a drier buttocks.

Pros & Cons

Drier buttocks
Less pressure
No more tingling Noble parts
Takes some getting used to but then ok

Fine and well-sprung saddle

- John, 18 August, 2022

After a year of enthusiastic cycling on my "factory" cube, I did decide to look for a more comfortable saddle that will pass less of the road and spring more on longer distances. I factored the reviews of the Selle Royal saddle into my decision and to this day have not regretted my purchase.

Pros & Cons

comfort
resilience

Worth the money.

- Tom, 10 August, 2022

Read several reviews before purchase and it's true. No more "sagging" on longer bike rides with this saddle.

Pros & Cons

Comfort also on long distances
Especially for sporty seating
For a good saddle, reasonably priced

Very comfortable, it's a saddle that suits me perfectly.

- Michel, 8 August, 2022

Very satisfied. Age 59. Cycling as a hobby. Saddle mounted on mountain bike. Outings of 2 to 3 hours, 4 times a week. 700 kms ridden since fitting and no more pain in the seat, which is what I'm aiming for with this type of saddle.

sits comfortably on longer trips

- Koen, 15 February, 2022

My previous Selle Royal saddle was good, but the support bars were broken. I therefore bought this similar saddle. I have used it for about 2 weeks now, on several rides of 2 hours or more. On the first few rides, I had to adjust the position a bit, but now it sits just fine and I am quite satisfied. I expect it to be comfortable on longer rides as well. The only downside is that I notice that the name "Respiro" on the side has come off by now, but of course that has no effect on functionality and comfort!

Pros & Cons

comfortable during longer trips
lettering comes off after just a few weeks

Really a comfortable top saddle.

- Michiel, 4 November, 2021

I bike daily for over an hour commuting. With the original saddle I always suffered from pinching and tingling. With this saddle that is completely gone. Exactly what I was hoping for when I bought it. Because the seat area is smaller, there is increased pressure where you make contact with the saddle. I had to get used to that for about 2 weeks. Now I am completely comfortable. This saddle is really a recommendation, I am very happy with it.

Pros & Cons

Not too gentle.
Relieve pressure where you need it.

Good comfortable and sporty saddle

- Ivar, 16 August, 2021

Very nice saddle which is very easy to adjust. Also received a gift (in/on the box) from Mantel. No minuses, only pluses. Use this saddle for "regular bike" application on fitness bike. When I go out on the bike for longer trips I use narrower leather saddle with sea pants. But this saddle in combo with jeans is very doable. Ingenious also how front is "open" and gives cooling under the saddle. Delivered very quickly too.

Pros & Cons

Comfortable
Easy to install

Literally excellent saddle any ride!

- PdH, 8 July, 2021

I had the same saddle before, however, one of the mounting supports broke (after several years). Was going to list it as a downside, but for the sake of absolute ease of use ordered the same saddle...and the support is a different, sturdier (hopefully;) material!

Pros & Cons

"Firm", yet very comfortable
Excellent price(/quality) (via Mantel)
Excellent seating position and adjustment
Long rides, rather upright seating position
