Brooks Swift Titanium saddle in Black.
Owned from new, and in excellent condition with no crash damage or marks from leaning against walls etc. It has since had 3 good treatments of Proofide to seal and soften it.
I used it for a while on my best bike (my Cervelo), but it did look a little out of place. I then tried a Fizik Kurve, the Brooks was retired. Probably 500 miles use. Im only 70kg too so barely broken in.
Condition is excellent, barely a defect on it, as the photos more than show. The rivets being dull is a sign that it hasnt been used for a while. Riding it polishes them up quickly :-)
1/2 used tub of Proofide and Brooks rain cover included. No packaging however.
Cheapest I can find online is £171 (for a black one in stock).
I'll accept £120 posted.
Fizik Gobi XM Braided Saddle.
Rare limited edition model with brown leather side and rear scuff guards. Carbon braided oval rails. Fitted briefly to a classic road build, but ended up on an Antares.
Condition is excellent, showing minor clamping marks on the rails, and a tiny amount of wear on one side. The logos are still 100% intact (which is usually the first thing to wear off on a Fizik saddle.)
Details of particular saddle here: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/fizik-gobi-xm-carbon-saddle-with-carbon-rails-2010/
The RRP on this model was near £160 new. Will accept £90 posted.
