Arte Selle

The Arte Selle Dakar Print is a really good race saddle at a very reasonable price.

We reviewed the Arte Selle Dakar Double saddle earlier in the year and liked it a lot. This one is very similar.

The shell is 275mm long and 130mm across; about normal for a saddle of this kind. That plastic shell is carbon-infused and it flexes a little to reduce vibration and smooth over pot-holed roads.

Arte Selle's Dakar Double saddle is a high quality bit of kit that I found really comfortable. It packs a couple of surprises too, the first of which is the price: it costs just £30.
