Selle Italia Monolink Review

Weight weenies looking for a new seatpost and saddle combo need look no further than Selle Italia’s Monolink concept. The featherweight seatpost (160g for 31.6mm) and SLR Monolink saddle (130g) are designed to operate as an integrated system, however the seatpost comes complete with a cradle to accept saddles with standard rails if you are wary of abandoning your favourite perch.

Along with a combined weight that is lighter than many saddles alone, the narrowness of the clamp design eliminates the chance of catching your inner leg whilst pedalling, and provides more than adequate fore / aft adjustment.

  • Seatpost £158.99
  • Monolink SLR Saddle from £154.99

Selle Italia Monolink Seat – Review

Selle Italia Monolink is a concept in seat and seatpost design. It is light – 160g for the post and 130g for the seat.

That is seriously light. The clamp is very narrow which helps avoiding chafing on the inner thigh.

Prices are a little heavier though. Seatpost is £159 and the seat is £155. Available from Chain Reaction Cycles
