The new Flite Boost range by Selle Italia includes two models designed for mountain bike and gravel enthusiasts: the Flite Boost X-Cross Superflow and Flite Boost Gravel Superflow. Two saddles that respond to bikers’ demands: lightness, comfort, resistance, and performance. Both come with the Shock Absorber system between the body and rail, which absorbs vibrations caused by pedaling on rough terrain and feature a TI316 rail and Fibra-tek covering, renowned for their resistance and durability.

A cult saddle for both amateurs and professionals, Flite has written thirty years of Selle Italia’s history and was relaunched in 2020 in a more modern and higher performing key: Flite Boost. A range including a selection of models, which, thanks to Flite Boost X-Cross Superflow and Flite Boost Gravel Superflow, is aimed at mountain and gravel bike enthusiasts alike.
