WTB Saddles | Silverado

The revered Silverado saddle has been updated with a shorter 265mm length and new Fusion Form base technology to provide the same comfort you know and love, but with a modern look!

Fusion Form technology allows us to fine-tune the amount of fiber infused into the nylon of each specific saddle model to create a flex profile that balances comfort, support and durability to match the intended use of each individual saddle. The Silverado optimizes efficiency in a forward-leaning pedaling position with a fiber percentage similar to the recently released Gravelier saddle. Fusion Form also allows the padding to be recessed into the base, which provides a sleek aesthetic without actually reducing overall padding thickness.

Usage: Adventure Road - Gravel - Cross Country - Trail - Enduro

Fusion Form Features

Flat Profile
Flat saddles allows riders to tilt their pelvis to varying degrees for different riding positions. Flat saddles are best for riders who prefer to utilize different sitting positions along the length of the saddle.

Short 265mm Length
Silverado now features a shorter 265mm length, which allows for seamless on-off transitions while still providing plenty of room for riders to slide forward and maximize power output on steep climbs. Its shorter length allows riders to get deeper into the cockpit while avoiding interference with the nose of the saddle.

Fusion Form Base
Fusion Form technology allows us to fine-tune the amount of fiber infused into the nylon of each specific saddle model to create a flex profile that balances comfort, support and durability to match the intended use of each individual saddle. The Silverado optimizes efficiency in a forward-leaning pedaling position with a fiber percentage that balances flex and support. Fusion Form also allows the padding to be recessed into the base, which provides a sleek aesthetic without actually reducing overall padding thickness.

Thin Padding
Thinner padding provides just enough foundational squish to provide support during hard efforts, while also minimizing weight. Thin padding relies on saddle shape and base flex to provide ultimate comfort.

Comfort Zone
Small window cut away from the centerline of the saddle base to provide additional relief from pressure on your sensitive areas. Comfort Zone is a subtle difference that provides impressive long-term comfort.

Microfiber Cover
Found on all WTB saddles, our Microfiber Cover closely replicates the look and feel of a leather cover, but with the anti-microbial and cruelty-free benefits of a synthetic material. The supple nature of the Microfiber Cover allows the foam to fully support the sit bones without interfering with its resiliency.

Same Silverado. Just More Comfortable
Who says you can’t make the best even better? Pressure mapping technology was used to determine where pinpoint pressures existed on the original Silverado and how we could better distribute those pressures to the sit bones. The result is a slightly flatter profile that further reduces perineal pressure. Silverado also now features a shorter 265mm length, which allows for seamless on-off transitions while still providing plenty of room for riders to slide forward and maximize power output on steep climbs.

Fusion Form Base Technology
The updated Silverado saddles feature WTB’s new Fusion Form technology, which allows us to fine-tune the amount of fiber infused into the nylon of each specific saddle model to create a flex profile that balances comfort, support and durability to match the intended use of each individual saddle. The Silverado optimizes efficiency in a forward-leaning pedaling position by using fiber percentage similar to the recently released Gravelier saddle. Fusion Form also allows the padding to be recessed into the base, which provides a sleek aesthetic without actually reducing overall padding thickness.

Fusion Form Technology

Fusion Form Shell
Fusion Form technology allows us to fine-tune the amount of fiber infused into the nylon of each specific saddle model to create a flex profile that balances comfort, support and durability to match the intended use of each individual saddle.

Love Channel
Found on all WTB saddles, the Love Channel is a valley down the center of the saddle that provides soft-tissue relief and prevents unwanted pressure that would otherwise cause numbness.

Integrated Tool Mount
Fusion Form saddles feature an integrated mount for securing tools and on-bike storage, located on the underside of the base.

Microfiber Cover
Anti-microbial cover both protects and enhances the foam supporting your sit bones without interfering with its comfort or durability.

*Recommended torque for all carbon rails: Vertical load clamp- 80 in-lbf (9.0N*m). Side-load clamp- 120 in-lbf (13.5 N*m)

Recommended torques are specific to WTB carbon saddles. You must also consult the saddle User's Manual for the seat post's recommended torque. If the seat post torque recommendation exceeds the saddle's recommendation's always use the lower torque recommendation.
