Shorter Length: The new SLR measures 242mm—6mm shorter than its predecessor and just shy of the UCI limit.
More Compact Rear: Pressure mapping via Selle Italia’s idmatch analysis showed the rear of the Saddle was underused, so padding was slimmed down to trim weight and improve responsiveness.
Same Contact Point: The BRP (Biomechanical Reference Point) remains unchanged, preserving the same seated feel as prior generations.
Improved Carbon Rails: A new layup design provides better vibration damping while maintaining structural stiffness.
Increased Adjustability: The stack height between the BRP and the front rail insertion was raised by 4mm to offer more fore-aft adjustment.
Sleek New Aesthetic: A blacked-out look with minimal grey graphics keeps things clean and modern.
SLR 3D CARBON
Weight: 137g (S3) / 146g (L3)
Padding: 3D printed with Carbon DLS tech
Rail: Full carbon
Claim to fame: The lightest 3D-printed Saddle on the market
Exclusive Gyroid Structure: High-resilience EPU 3D-printed padding integrates a cutting-edge gyroid design, delivering superior pressure distribution, enhanced support, and maximum comfort at minimal weight. Precision-Tuned G3D Padding: 3D-printed gyroid infill padding allows precise variation in density across the center of the saddle, optimizing support and comfort in key pressure zones while keeping weight to a minimum. Optimised Performance Shaping: A crowned profile that quickly drops away at the wings increases pedaling space, improving fit options and reducing clearance issues. Smooth-Edge, Truncated Nose: Minimises inner thigh interference for unrestricted pedaling motion. Advanced Forged Composite Technology Base: A low-seated, SMC carbon base eliminates flex, enhances support, and maximises pedalling efficiency. Integrated Rail Design: Relieves pressure points while improving compliance for a smoother ride. Ergonomic Center Cut-Out: Reduces pressure on soft tissue areas for long-lasting comfort.
Joyseat Plus is the biggest departure from Posedla’s previous saddles, switching to a glass fiber reinforced nylon shell and 7mm round tubular stainless steel rails for increased strength & durability. But still a claimed saddle weight from around 220g. With that more robust construction, also comes a higher 120kg rider weight limit.
Joyseat Pro is essentially the carry-over Joyseat 2.0 with a thin twill carbon shell bonded to 7x9mm oval UD carbon rails, a 100kg rider limit, and weight from 165g
Joyseat Ultra is the other all-new saddle in the 3D-printed custom-fit family. Posedla describes it as their “most technologically advanced saddle to date” with a new reinforced UD carbon shell and oval rails developed to optimize lightweight and race-ready stiffness. It is the new choice of Classified x Rose Gravel Racing Team (in special edition purple) with custom saddle weights from just 155g.
