Well GEL, multi-discipline saddle, even more comfortable thanks to GEL

Well GEL is an extremely comfortable, high-performance saddle. It combines the flexibility of the GEL layer with structural stability that remains unchanged over time. It is certainly suitable for cyclists and riders who want to engage in more intense and prolonged cycling on both asphalt and rough terrain.

Well GEL has a polyurethane and GEL padding that adapts to the shape of the body, reducing pressure on sensitive areas. The upholstery is made of SVT Velvet Touch, the shell of carbon-filled nylon 12 and the frame of stainless steel or unidirectional carbon.

The ergonomic and anatomical Designed on Your Body shape ensures balanced weight distribution and a better posture in the saddle. Well GEL is available in different sizes and colours to suit every rider's preferences.

Well GEL is the ideal saddle for those looking for a comfortable, high-performance and reliable solution for their bike, whether racing, MTB, gravel, trekking or fixed.

SMP Vacuum Tech

All SMP4Bike Tourism range saddles are made with an innovative production process conceived in the SMP laboratories to apply padding and cover without the necessity of using adhesives or mechanical fasteners. All this translates into superior comfort, thanks to the softer and flatter surfaces and longer product life.

Gel Padding

Saddles with self-modelling Gel inserts were designed to mould to the user's specific build while offering higher comfort and unique well-being. Pressure distribution tests demonstrated how the use of Gel reduced the specific pressure on anatomical contact points by the 30%, promoting a high level of perineum perfusion that characterizes all SMP saddle range.

100% Made in Italy

All materials used to produce SMP saddles are 100% Italian and each single saddle is manufactured, checked and packaged at Casalserugo headquarters in the province of Padua. Their team personally define and test material and production process quality. Talented local craftsmen work for SMP to manage processes that require specific experience and skills. This is how Selle SMP has ensured to have each saddle fully manufactured in Padua, in the Veneto region in Italy, for over seventy years.
