Push the boundaries of your trail rides with the Selle Italia X-Bow Superflow, a revolutionary saddle engineered for the most punishing terrains. Whether you're tackling demanding enduro courses or powering through rugged eMTB routes, this saddle delivers dynamic comfort, long-range adaptability, and pressure-relieving performance thanks to its innovative crossbow-inspired design.
Unrivaled Flexibility Meets Trail-Ready Durability
The X-Bow Superflow takes its name and function from the crossbow — a symbol of tension and flex. Its innovative rear-mounted rail system allows the shell to rotate subtly around the Fec Alloy Tubular rails, creating a spring-like “crossbow effect” that continuously responds to changes in terrain. This unique motion absorbs vibration and distributes impact force, so you stay comfortable and in control, mile after mile.
Complementing the shell's dynamic nature are Shock Absorbers, strategically placed between the saddle shell and rails. These elastomeric dampers further reduce trail chatter, making the X-Bow Superflow ideal for technical descents, root-laced climbs, and gravel hammerfests.
Designed for Maximum Comfort & Custom Fit
Selle Italia’s Superflow technology introduces a central cut-out to minimize pressure in the perineal area — a common source of discomfort and numbness during long off-road adventures. The wide anatomical channel effectively relieves pressure on soft tissues and the ischial bones, making it a game-changer for endurance mountain bikers.
Available in two widths — S3 (145 mm) and L3 (155 mm) — the saddle accommodates a range of sit bone structures, while its neutral shape supports both dynamic riders with forward pelvic rotation and static riders with rearward tilt.
Engineered for the Trail
Soft-Tek polyurethane cover: Soft to the touch, highly durable, and resistant to wear and weather — perfect for aggressive off-road use.
Fec Alloy Rails (Ø7 mm): Lightweight, flexible, and ultra-strong carbon-iron alloy rails deliver strength without compromising comfort or compliance.
