Gelu R3+ Carbon Saddle

The R model represents a turning point for Gelu saddles, both aesthetically and structurally, as well as functionally.

With a weight of 53 g, the R+ carbon saddle perfectly combines extreme lightness with a reinforced structure and features unique details: The rails are significantly longer and thicker, allowing for a wider range of adjustment, and at the same time extend in one piece beneath the front tip of the saddle, making it shatter-resistant. The front tip is slightly shorter and significantly more robust. The central opening features a new “teardrop” design and is reinforced all around with a rounded carbon profile, which gives the saddle high strength and works in conjunction with the “Drop Stop.” The open holes on the surface combine the classic aesthetics of the R Series with excellent ventilation. A horizontal “blade” has been placed between the rear wings, providing the saddle with a great deal of stability. Compact and ergonomic, this model adapts effortlessly to any bone structure. The central opening was specifically designed to completely eliminate any pressure in the prostate area. Orthopedically certified!
