In a perfect world, every bike saddle you'd ever have to sit on would be comfortable, breezy and just an overall joy to ride. Unfortunately, this isn't a perfect world and a lot of saddles... well, they suck. Oh well, at least there's Selle Royal. The Respiro Moderate - sold both in standard length and shortvariants - is a great, versatile saddle for moderately upright positions, which for so many bikes, especially commuters, ends up being the sweet spot.

Selle Royal's Respiro line reimagines comfort-oriented saddles for the modern cyclist, with a number of thoughtful innovations that maximize comfort where it matters most. All Respiro saddles feature a ventilation channel that relieves perineal pressure while breathing in the right places, as well as a specially composed water resistant cover which actually reflects sunlight to stay cool. Top it off with Selle's ultra-comfy special gel, and you can breathe easy knowing the Respiro has your back(side) covered.
