Wiggle have some SDG Ti saddles from £12! £24 for a Bel Air.
Solid ti rails or not worth buying imo.
Nice one 🙂
Link?
Cheers, found a hole in my current bel air, and now i've got a new one. 🙂
Thanks OP, I've been waiting to get a new one of these for about 4 years (the original has been torn to pieces and is still the most comfortable saddle I've had!).
Cheers!!!
EDIT: I've just checked and the stock doesn't seem to have updated since I placed my order so hoping that I got in before somebody bought the last black / red one...
Cheers, been looking at these for a while now. At that price, how could I not pull the trigger.
Cheers for the heads up my gobi has seen better days 🙂
Finally get rid of that crappy white saddle on my boardman. Cheers for the heads up.
Good PSA, I've been looking for a cheap Bel Air for a while 😀
It has taken untold will power to resist this PSA!!! 🙂
I've just added one of these in black to my pile of things I don't need but none the less have thanks to recent psa's. Thanks OP.
Nice one. Black & green ordered, colour won't match anything on my bike but for £24...... who gives a damn! 😀
Thanks.
Getting close to a 100% PSA built bike.
Ooh, good one, cheers OP! 2 ordered, my favourite saddle.
Kev
Nice one, thanks for posting. Was hoping for a bel air in the right colour but a Aliso in black black for 12 quid is an alright replacement. lol.
Cheers godzilla, ordered and the one I ordered from CRC a couple of days ago for £48 will be going back!
Cheers Godzilla - needed a new cheap perch for the dh bike, aliso in black for £12 is perfect, cheers!
Ti-Fly's are £80!
Have a couple of bel airs which are great, anyone have experience of the Aliso?
Nice one OP - just ordered a Bel Air RL for £24 for my HT 🙂
I've had the purple and white checked one for a couple of years on the FS and can detect no difference in comfort with the 'Ti alloy' rails compared to Ti that I had previously.
Thanks OP
Cheers! Needed a new saddle. Almost bought another spoon.
Aliso is a bigger saddle, more DH style IMO.
Ordered thurs night, arrived this morning, I'm impressed!
Alisios are awful compared to Bel Airs. One of the most uncomfortable saddles I've ever used, which is odd as the Bel Air is the most comfortable.
I must just have a funny shaped arse.
Yep, looking at it I wouldn't fancy putting a lot of mileage in on one, prefer my slr or gobi for that.
😀 Ordered, Thanks for the PSA.
Anyone know the weight of these?
Wiggle show the weight of the Ti as 260g, Cro Mo as 325g but no weight listed for this Ti/Alloy railed version.
I thank you and curse you in equal measures 😀
didn't realise I was after a new saddle
Ordered anyway. 🙂
Yay me too can't go wrong for £12 😀

Yay me too can't go wrong for £12
Just what I thought.
260g sounds optimstic, but not too far off, I think mine was a bit more than that, but hen it was very old and probably soaked up a fair amount of mud!
284 gms on my kitchen scales
how did you get one for £12 shows up at £23.98 for me (which is still cheap enough!)
£12 is for the Aliso.
Just taken delivery Aliso 246g on digital scales. Charge spoon chromo on the same scales 290g. Thanks for the PSA.
Am I looking at the right place? Wiggle.co.uk
Prices show in dollars and they want over $12 for delivery then on top of that says there is an import tax. WTF
matlockmeat - button at top right, change to GBP and UK location ?
Nearly buought one at £40ish from crc earlier, two ordered. Thats all bikes with the same saddle.

Thanks. Didn't help I was trying to do it through my phone.
Just placed my order. Bargain. That is now my 4th SDG bel air seat.
good PSA, by the way - got one for my pompetamine, much more comfy than the WTB it replaced and 30g lighter too 🙂
may get another for the MTB at that price, good stuff!
oh yeah, my digital kitchen scales said 246g as well.
Received mine today, once again cheers OP.
What's the difference between ti and the ordinary ones? Is it just weight, or are they comfier?
Great PSA, thanks. Got mine this morning
Are they making these cheaper nowadays?
Mine turned up yesterday and noticeably feels cheaper than my current Bel-air.
Also doesn't have Kevlar sides which was a main feature of my original seat.
What's happened to the Kevlar sides? I can see this one getting ripped!
houndlegs - MemberWhat's the difference between ti and the ordinary ones?
Lighter and in theory comfier as the rails flex more.
My Ti alloy has come. 278g on kitgchen scales.
Funny, I ordered mine specificly because they didn't have Kevlar sides.
just my luck , i missed out on these as i wanted one in black. So if any of you lucky fellas decides it not suited to your arse can i have 1st dibs. 😀
