Hi,
I need a saddle recommendation from you guys (or better girls).
My gf has a road bike that is build up more like a relaxed touring bike (i.e. cinelli priest bars instead of road bars etc..)
The problem is the saddle. So far we have tried the following:
Brooks B17/B68 and others: all those Brooks, no matter if 'aged' or not, she finds 'too uncomfortable'. The bike isn't ridden that much and never on long distances anyway, so this is probably true and won't change.
Supercorsa/Turbo: no likey as well
At the same time she doesn't want something really comfy or wide (dutch/gel/whatever), because it looks shit, and that's true, too.
So, what could be the best compromise?
How about a Rolls, are they a bit more gf approved?
By the way, the colour has to be brown-ish (ideally honey)
