Selle Royal Respiro Sport Cool Microtex Bicycle Saddle (Men's)

Selle Royal Respiro Sport Men's Cool Microtex Saddle is dedicated to the demanding cyclist. In hot weather, when leaving a bike in the sun or riding for a long period of time, a saddle can increase in temperature. Rising above the rider's skin temperature, the saddle creates an unpleasant feeling of perspiration and discomfort. Eventually this discomfort can cause pain. Respiro, meaning breathe in Italian, avoids this by keeping the saddle up to 25 percent cooler thanks to the cool microtex cover and the ventilation channel. This saddle is anatomically designed specifically for men for maximum comfort and blood flow. The sport design of the saddle focuses RoyalGel padding in the front of the saddle to provide more relief where the sit bones and weight of the rider is located. Specs: Color - Black; Rail - Magnesium Galvanized; Weight - 270 grams; Length - 281mm; Width - 143mm; ICS - Yes; Mod. Elastomers - No.

Aw yeah! This photo of Fossil Fool and a guest rapper won the Brooks Saddles photo contest and will be on their home page. Thanks to Ross Evans for the photo.

Explanation:
I was street performing in North Beach, San Francisco, during one of the San Francisco Cruiser Rides, and this crowd of people walked by and started really reacting to the music. One of them said he had something to say a cappella, so I handed him the microphone and let him do his thing. He was really getting into it.

The bike is an Xtracycle Sport Utility Bicycle with a custom-built, 300-watt, 5-speaker music system called the Soul Cycle. It’s got all sorts of switches and knobs on the handlebars, including lighting, bass adjustment, and even a tiny 2 channel mixer so I can balance my vocals to the backing music. I rap mostly about bikes and public transportation. I try to keep it funny because the guilt trips don’t work. My mission is to get a bike rap song in the top 40, alongside all the songs about cars and guns and girls.

The Soul Cycle project inspired me to invent the Down Low Glow – the neon green ground effects lights seen in the picture. I’ve now sold them to folks all over the world through the Fossil Fool.com web site. People say they feel a lot safer at night due to the intense side visibility. Most people just buy it for the cool ‘pillow’ effect you get gliding on the neon light.

Thanks to Brooks for continuing to put out such a high quality and stylish product. I’m all about making my bike as styling as possible, not to intimidate or compete with others, but to amaze small children and convince my peers that cycling is sexy. Once we achieve that, I think you’ll find a lot more cities in the US that have strong bike cultures. It’s worth the effort.

Selle Royal Lookin Sport Men's Cook Xsenium Bi-Color Actex Saddle combines the innovative Cool Cover and RoyalGel for the greatest level of gel comfort. An ordinary black saddle can easily warm up to over 60 degrees Celsius, or more, when left in the sun. Laboratory tests prove that our new cool cover can keep the saddle's temperature 25 degrees lower, reducing the unpleasant feeling of sitting on a hot surface. RoyalGel reduces pressure on the prostate/pubis and sit bone areas by up to 80 percent. That's maximum comfort, guaranteed. The Lookin saddle is equipped with Royal Vacuum Light (RVL), making the saddle more comfortable thanks to the use of a high quality polyurethane foam that is 100 percent sealed and up to 20 percent lighter than other saddles of the same category. This saddle is anatomically designed specifically for men for maximum comfort and blood flow. The sport design of the saddle focuses RoyalGel padding in the front of the saddle to provide more relief where the sit bones and weight of the rider is located. Xsenium is a rubberized vinyl cover that allows the RoyalGel below to move freely and more dynamically in all three dimensions. Specs: Color - Black; Rail - Magnesium Galvanized; Weight - 295 grams; Length - 266mm; Width - 144mm; ICS - Yes; Mod. Elastomers - No.
