As a model without padding, Forma is suitable for those accustomed to riding on rigid saddles of medium width. The Forma model was designed for cyclists seeking greater seated comfort than the narrower Composit version offers.
The patented features of Selle SMP, namely the completely open central channel, the distinctive eagle-beak nose and the raised rear section, give these models an extra aerodynamic edge. "Designed on your body", the saddle's advertising slogan, describes it best.
Suitable for people with a medium to wide pelvis.
Studies conducted by various universities in the United States, Norway and Austria have shown that compression of the pelvic organs and pudendal arteries can have serious consequences for the genital system of athletes and enthusiasts.
The SMP patent stems from studying the positions adopted by riders during the various stages of a ride and the resulting interaction between the saddle, pelvic organs and genitals. Its aim is to prevent compression and friction while improving blood supply to the leg muscles. The pelvic organs sit within the saddle's central channel, which is up to 5 cm wide, without any compression, allowing full, continuous and natural blood flow. The cyclist's seated weight is distributed between the buttocks and the lower part of the pelvic bone (the ischial tuberosities).
The front section, with its distinctive eagle-beak shape, prevents compression of the genitals and provides a good support base when pushing hard on the pedals.
A depression at the rear of the saddle prevents the coccyx from touching the saddle, avoiding jolts caused by uneven terrain.
The line joining the rear and front sections follows the shape of the thigh muscles to maintain maximum blood circulation for greater pedalling power and reduced tingling.
