Selle Italia SLR racing Saddle

Not if the shape works. Had an SLR XP on my old road bike, then I bent the rails by using the saddle for cyclocross. Now I've got a glossy SLR XC on my polo bike.

have you not seen an slr before?

no, this is all new to me, but im looking for a saddle, so trawling the bay, so they are ok then?

Braze-on front mech. with adaptor for fitting to a banana:

they are if they fit you're arse, if they don't their shit. it all depends on what you find comfortable, i suggest going to a bike shop and asking to try some out

go for a max flite, for the portlier gentleman

i still think he's trolling, just mark my words.

haha, have we met?

I like gel and springs, but on the current build im looking for something more spoon

Agreed, no way a 54 inch frame will fit someone of 5'4"

Really?

They ended this early not so long ago. this young ladies tats were all over the page.

tats. good word.

you may be told its lower end of ishiwata range, but the truth is its fairly reliable and stiff tubing. at 62st size you need to look for less delicate tubes anyway.
I have a recollection of bianchis using this tubing for their frames, may be wrong though :S

yep, better to have cheaper(heavier) tubing in 60+ cm frames

there was a road test done in the 80's with I think 7 identical geometry steel framed bikes(same builder), same components. turned out that Columbus Aelle was preferred over the cheaper tubing in some cases, definitely better for large track frames, ultra light steel tubing should only be used for 56cm and smaller.

I have a very nice 62cm Italian pista frame built by a small shop in the 90's, nice lugs and pantographs, obviously was expensive but has Aelle tubing

Ebay trawling...
