Customer Reviews

Selle Italia Turbo Leather 1980 Saddle is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 24.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gregyap from its gorgeous, it classy and its comfy I was apprehensive ordering this but was all smiles when it arrived. The seat fitted the look I wanted on my 1998 GT road bike together with the Continental Grand Prix classic tyres and the Brooks cambium microfiber bar tape. Most importantly, the seat fits and rides comfortably ... took it on a 50km spin immediately after fitting it. and when parked, the bike was elicited a "wow" response ;-) couldn't be happier ..and I managed to get all the above in one go (at wiggle)

Rated 4 out of 5 by GrahamC004 from If only it had real suede leather... I used to ride 3TTT leather covered plastic saddles in the 70's, then the Turbo really became the 'in' saddle in the 80's. I liked it back then. Now that I am older, I wasn't sure whether my sore butt after 100Km was old age, or that I didn't adapt to the 'flat' profile modern saddles. So I decided to try one of these. The verdict... I guess it was the old age. The Turbo is still a great saddle, but wasn't taking me back magically to my youth. I will keep it as it is still (for me) a better shape than the modern saddles, but I wish it had real suede leather like the 80's version. This is synthetic suede, and seems to breathe less than the real stuff. Still, it is comfortable, and makes my bike look as old as me.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Teocalli from Great for that vintage look Great saddle for the vintage look but seems to require quite a biota breaking in......

Rated 4 out of 5 by Debelle from Great looking saddle that is extremely comfortable While I wouldn't recommend this saddle for full on racing - primarily because the surface is a little too 'grabby' and therefore hinders your ability to move around - it is a great training saddle. The plus is the great retro look that will earn you some compliments from the hipsters.

Q & A

Is it waterproof?

Interested in buying the tan suede, but was wondering how it fairs under rain and a little water from time to time?
Asked by: Mike91
This would have a small amount of water resistance but ideally we would recommend keeping the saddle dry at all times as extended exposure to water can result in long-term damage to the fabric if not treated.

Are these saddles suitable for women?

I really like the aesthetic of this in particular, and the brand as a whole - are they unisex? Other 'women's specific' saddles are ugly - plastic and high-tech looking.
Asked by: hannahmeese
Women saddles tend to be winder due to women having a wider sit bone. So this saddle might not be very comfortable. If you are having trouble finding the right saddle I would recommend measuring you sit bone and chose a saddle based on this.

Does this saddle have rails, so that it fits a normal seat post?

Asked by: Madskp
Yes. It does.

Matching brown bar tape?

Which handlebar tape would you recommend to match color of this brown saddle?
Asked by: Short13
The Brooks England Cambium Microfibre Bar Tape would be a great match with this saddle.

I can confirm that both the black and tan colour options are shown in the image and the measurements should be correct, however these are only approximations.

Selle Italia Turbo Saddles 1980

Why is there 2 separate listings for this saddle? Different release dates for the white and tan colours?
Asked by: rayms
These are listed differently because this model is the version with the leather upper and available in Tan or Black. Where as the Selle Italia Turbo 1980 Saddle is the standard version which is the same shape and profile but has a microfiber cover and is available in White or Black. I hope this helps.

Is the 280 gram weight accurate?

Is this saddle really 280 grams? I bought the microfibre version here and it is 321 grams, not the listed 280 grams. Is the extra 41 grams the extra padding on the microfibre version, that people do not like. I wish I knew about this, because I would off spent the extra $15 on the leather.
Asked by: rayms
This saddle weighs 290g but this is going to be slightly different for each individual saddle.
