If inherited from Proto-Indo-European, it could reflect *sédulos, presumably thematicized from earlier *séd-wl̥(“tool for sitting”). But, there are historical reasons to doubt such an old word for “saddle”.
*-e- instead of expected *-ě- (cf. *sěděti, *sědlo) is explained by irregular phonetic development caused by frequency.
