dude, if are riding your bike, you gonna fuck up parts after a while,
saddle too and different saddles have different height, so if this plastic
SLR (or what ever it is) is fucked up , you will have not many options
for a saddle to get the same saddle height.
I am riding my bike and I am fucking up the saddle (too many cross style remounts!). I just buy another one the same as the saddle works for me. Luckily that is an SLR which will be around for a long time combined with mass of used ones.
And I am 44 and have used SLRs on and off for years
