Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Saddles. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Selle San Marco GND Supercomfort Open-Fit Dynamic Saddle.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Selle San Marco GND Supercomfort Open-Fit Dynamic Saddle is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Saddles. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Saddles. Brands like Selle San Marco are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Saddles category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.


Comparing Prices

Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Saddles.

It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

  • Description: Selle San Marco GND Supercomfort Open-Fit Dynamic SaddleDeveloped for maximum strength and control, this off-road saddle is fitted with a robust microfeel cover, which makes it ideal at handling the increased pressure that’s associated with off-road adventures. Selle San Marco has also kitted out this model with a carbon fibre reinforced shell, so you can benefit from its excellent support without worrying about adding any excess grams to your bike. Another benefit is its manganese rails that provide a secure hold to your seatpost, while also dampening vibrations from the mixed terrain conditions. One final highlight is its biofoam padding that follows the movements of your pelvis during pedalling and guarantees comfort, reduced weight, lasting resistance and ideal support.GND has been specifically developed for OFF-ROAD.Design and ergonomics in the new GND were conceived specifically to achieve the perfect mix between areas of release and areas of support. The front part is wider and softer compared to other saddles in the collection, offering increased comfort, even in more aggressive positions (for example, on climbs). The design, ergonomics, and width of the back part of the saddle offer perfect support for the cyclist, even when they’re not pushing hard on the pedals.Its features and design make the GND saddle particularly suited for the Off-Road sector. The saddle’s structure is open in the middle to alleviate pressure, while full-fit padding (no hole) prevents riding pants from getting muddy. The padding features a unique double density to optimize areas of support (front and back), complete with two ‚Äúshock-absorber‚Äù inserts to reduce the vibrations generated from off-road terrain and transmitted from the bicycle to the rider.The Supercomfort version is perfect for several types of users:1. Riders who don’t spend a lot of time on a bike. If on average the ride doesn’t last more than 2 hours, it is better to use more padding; in this case the sustaining subcutaneous tissues don’t have to adapt to prolonged pressure.2. Riders who spend a lot of time on a bike. If you spend more than 5-6 hours on the saddle, you need thicker padding, considering the time that the subcutaneous areas are subject to pressure.3. For riders who prefer rough terrain and use Gravel Bikes, the Supercomfort saddle better absorbs the vibrations caused by bumpy surfaces.Features: Cover Material: Microfeel Rail Material: Manganese Shell Material: Carbon Fibre Reinforced, Open-fit design Foam: Dual Density Biofoam Use: MTB, Gravel, Adventure and E-bike Gender: Unisex Dimension: 262x145mm Level: Dynamic ID Match Size: L3 Wide Part Number: SMS327MW001 Weight: 235gTechnologies: MANGANESE RAILS: This material increases the characteristics of the frame by improving its resistance to wear caused by shocks.

It is lighter than traditional materials and less deformable. Anti-skid effect with an extraordinary grip on the saddle. Biocompatible material. BIOFOAM+GEL: Biodynamic structure that follows the movements of the pelvis during pedalling, guarantees comfort, reduced weight, lasting resistance and ideal support.
