WTB SL8 Saddle

Elegant, slight curves accentuate this inviting shape that redefines what comfort is capable of at such a low weight. From where the pavement ends, to B-road pursuits and cyclocross run-ups, our SL8 saddle provides irrefutable comfort in a minimalist, svelte package.

USAGE: Adventure Road - Gravel - Cross Country – Gravity

FLAT PROFILE

Flat saddles allows riders to tilt their pelvis to varying degrees for different riding positions. Flat saddles are best for riders who prefer to utilize different sitting positions along the length of the saddle.

FLAT NOSE

Allows riders to perch on the nose to output more power during hard efforts. Flat nose saddles are commonly preferred by riders who live in areas with exceptionally steep climbs.

NARROW MID-SECTION

Minimal padding outside of the supportive sit bone area slims down the shape of the saddle. This prevents thigh rub while seated and keeps the saddle out of the way during out-of-the-saddle efforts.

THIN PADDING

Thinner padding provides just enough foundational squish to provide support during hard efforts, while also minimizing weight. Thin padding relies on saddle shape and base flex to provide ultimate comfort.

FLEX-TUNED BASE

The Flex-Tuned base provides an exceptional mix of comfortable flex and firm efficiency. Not as supple as the Soft-Shell and not as stiff as a carbon-composite base, Flex-Tuned saddles offer mid-level flex to provide optimal support and comfort for the majority of riders.

MICROFIBER COVER

Found on all WTB saddles, our Microfiber Cover closely replicates the look and feel of a leather cover, but with the anti-microbial and cruelty-free benefits of a synthetic material. The supple nature of the Microfiber Cover allows the foam to fully support the sit bones without interfering with its resiliency.
