Selle San Marco has expanded its range of saddles to include the new gravel-specific Shortfit Allroad, promising optimal stability, comfort and advanced vibration control on even the most challenging terrain thanks to the Italian brand’s Shortfit geometry and new rail system.
“Shortfit Allroad meets the needs of all types of riders, from commuters to long-distance enthusiasts, ensuring consistent performance and maximum freedom of movement. In the world of gravel riding, where the road ends and adventure begins, a new line of saddles has been created to transform every ride into an experience of control, comfort, and absolute freedom. Shortfit Allroad is the next generation of saddles designed for cyclists who push the boundaries: fast on tarmac, stable on dirt roads, and ready to take on any challenge, from daily commutes to long cross-country adventures,” says Selle San Marco.
In addition to its unique geometry, the Shortfit Allroad also sees Selle San Marco’s Bow Rail System, which allows the frame to flex around the rail, thus absorbing micro-shocks and vibrations, while shock absorbers that are integrated into the saddle’s body further reduce unwanted feedback from rough terrain.
“At the core of the project is the Bow Rail System, allowing the shell to pivot around the rails and work as a true integrated vibration-management solution. In addition, Shock Absorbers integrated into the shell reduce high-frequency vibrations and micro-impacts typical of gravel surfaces, improving comfort and pedaling consistency on mixed terrain. Rails: Steel in the Sport version for reliable support and durability; Xsilite in Racing and Supercomfort versions for lightweight strength and responsive performance,” adds Selle San Marco.
Offered in three guises, the Shortfit Allroad Supercomfort Racing, Shortfit Allroad Racing and the Shortfit Allroad Sport, the saddles differ by firmness and the use of lighter-weight materials in the construction, with prices ranging from $89.90 to $169.90.
Selle San Marco Explains:
“The Shortfit Allroad Supercomfort Racing is engineered for long rides, endurance gravel and demanding terrain. The Supercomfort system with integrated gel improves pressure distribution and vibration absorption, working together with the Bow Rail System and shell-integrated Shock Absorbers. The Supercomfort Racing versions also feature Xsilite rails, combining light weight with high structural strength for maximum ride performance. Premium comfort, full control, built for serious distance.” “The Shortfit Allroad Racing is the performance-oriented gravel saddle for riders who push hard off-road. The waved shape improves stability and control, while the Bow Rail System and shell-integrated Shock Absorbers reduce vibration transfer without losing a direct, race-ready ride feel. Equipped with lightweight Xsilite rails, this version delivers higher responsiveness, improved performance, and precise control on fast gravel and mixed-terrain rides.” “The Shortfit Allroad Sport is the most solid and practical gravel saddle for riders who want comfort that lasts. Immediate support, stable riding position, and long-term reliability come from the Shortfit geometry and the waved shape. The Bow Rail System and Shock Absorbers integrated into the shell reduce vibrations and fatigue where it matters most. The Sport version features solid steel rails, engineered to provide dependable support and long-term durability, ideal for riders who rack up serious mileage. The best value for money option in the range, built for riders who put in serious mileage.”
