Selle Anatomica (SA), makers of the World’s Most Comfortable Bicycle Saddles, debuted its crowd-funded, all-carbon C-Series Saddle at Interbike, on Wednesday, September 16th.
ROCKET-TECH
Developed with input from long-time San Diego-based Carbon Cycling Product experts, Aerospace Structural and Process Development legends, and a professor of Structural Mechanics at UCSD, the C-Series is bringing state-of-the-art Aerospace technology to one of the most critical touch points on the bicycle – the saddle.
MADE IN USA
“We’ve been making the top-rated Leather Saddles with a focus on comfort for nearly a decade,” states Ryan Hosmer, Vice President of Product Development. “Now we are taking what we’ve learned from those successful designs, and incorporating the latest in materials and unparalleled local knowledge that we have in the aerospace and cycling product development industries. What we’ve ended up with is a 100% carbon saddle that will expand our comfort legacy into the performance market.”
LEAF-SPRING DAMPING
The C-Series features a 3-layer carbon-weave top that floats on a multi-ply leaf-spring, with unidirectional carbon rails that attach to the seat post of your choice. Weighing in at only 150 grams, the C-Series is changing the bicycle saddle game. It will retail for $299, and it’s made right here in San Diego.
“This is a very exciting time for us at Selle Anatomica,” says Carol Hosmer, Owner and CEO. “We can’t wait for you to see, touch and experience the next level in cycling saddle performance!”

ABOUT SELLE ANATOMICA:
Selle Anatomica was founded in 2006 by ultra-cyclist Tom Milton when he developed a leather saddle with a unique slot shape that eliminated pressure on the sit bones, and allowed each side of the body to move independently while cycling. After passing away while cycling in 2010 his family took over the business and has spread his goal of providing the “World’s Most Comfortable Saddles” to cyclists around the Globe.

I’ve always wanted to place my sit bones on one of these fine saddles after hearing only good things from anyone who has ever rode on one. This announcement really sparks my interest.
Thanks!!!
I found a leather saddle from them that I apparently misplaced for the last year or so. I should probably throw that on a bike and try it out.
I would. I found one at my local bicycle recycle-ry. I traded volunteer hours for it, to put it on my dirt jumper build.
