Fabric Saddle Guide - Best Fabric Saddle?

Like us, Fabric are a UK company, who have become well known for their excellent range of saddles. They have simplified the saddle design where the cover is vacuum bonded onto a flexible base, resulting in fantastic comfort and a sleek and elegant design.

Fabric saddle shapes

Fabric Fit Guide

The saddles are available in three shapes to suit your riding requirements.

  • Flat – for an aerodynamic position with minimal padding, and a base material that provides a comfortable and supportive platform
  • Shallow – for a more upright riding position with a medium level of padding that provides comfort in a multitude of positions.
  • Radius – for those that want high levels of padding and maximum support for all day comfort. Suits a more upright riding position.

Elite, Race or Pro – The Fabric Quality Guide

The saddles are available in three shapes to suit your riding requirements.

  • Elite – feature lightweight Cro-Mo steel rail, waterproof microfiber cover vacuum bonded to a one-piece nylon base.
  • Race – same as above but the rails are upgraded to hollow titanium, reducing weight and increasing comfort
  • Pro – even lighter due to carbon rails and a nylon/fibre matrix base.
  • Ultimate – the top end saddle with carbon rails and carbon fibre base.
