Saddle - Comfort, looks or both?

i war cheap mondays or endura 3/4 baggys and neither of them rub the first coz they're skin tight and the second coz they were made for cycling, you probably wear yourtrousers quite low therefore they muve a lot on the saddle therefore they consume

i've got a bontrager race saddle, and i think it looks nice, and is really comfortable too - even in jeans. they have a "comfort guarantee" too, so if you don't like it you can send it back.

Since fitting the SLR (and loving it) I have a Bontrager saddle sitting around..

i like this one, titanium rails, bg gimmic thing which includes a hole in it so the stiching of your jeans will hang in there as you cycle

"Minimalist competition road" doesn't equal "wearing jeans on my way down the shops"
These saddles have got good reviews from a couple of the roadies I know. The slot is designed to take pressure away from your perineum(sp?) so you don't get a limp d1ck that night..

Fizik Arione here.

But any saddle gets (a lot) more confortable when using good padded shorts when cycling...

Not the lycra thread again.. NOOO!! ;-)

Got a spare Arione Roberto? Still want to test one of them..

those specialized sadles look well nice and im sure there good but £90 is a bit steep aint it.

Ebay my fine furry friend.

ive got a flite on my veto but its bloody blue which is clashing! im after a yellow one but there gonig for £70 squid
brooks look cool on vintage looking track bikes but look shit on modern track bikes.....one thinks:)

i just seem to find things like saddles, mostly there pretty comfortable too, but i guess thats of no real help

Try this, £50 at the mo':

i couldnt possibly spend £50 on a saddle,especialy not in my finacial situation

Welcome to rrp roadie pricing!!

sod it,il stick with my free saddle and hope no one notices it clashes with everything else

Hang on, you only want a saddle of a different colour?
I buy for comfort. Black generally so if it's comfortable I can use it with any bike.
What are you after?

thats the style aidan

im taknig the piss really,i do want a yellow saddle but i aint that worried about it.im going for the wasp look on my bike,ive got yellow tyres yellow and black star grips(on the way) but a blue saddle:)

Can't have that!
But I also can't help ya coz I don't 'do' yellow parts (sorry DK).

I do have yellow valve caps on the Raleigh because they colour match the frame. :)

try sitting on this!

get a bmx saddle, or a can of spray paint...

doesn't one usually sit on the saddle so i guess it doesn't really matter what colour it is just don't get off the bike

I asked my little brother about saddles when i was choosing one, he's raced for years (time trials etc) and said he's been riding the same Selle italia flite titanium for years and nothing beats it. I couldn't afford one though... Condor still have a bunch of Selle italia filante saddles in a "bargain" (i.e. £30) bin, I got one of those and it's pretty comfy.

always liked the flite, used one for 20 years, well not the same one, waiting for another at the mo.

Flite's rock but I reckon the 135g SLR is my new fave.
