How about some retro saddle porn? Someone recently gave me a mint Flite Titanium:

Nice, I have one of those that I can't quite bring myself to bin, nowhere near in as good a condition though!

That Flite was my first ever bit of bike bling. A summer's paper round and butchers boy savings got me one of those, Magura hydraulic rim brakes (frog green) and a Club Roost riser bar

Nice looking saddle, and you can really be "on the rivet" 🙂

I've got a Rolls on the road iron.

Soooo comfy it's untrue.
The Ti version, doesn't look quite as nice as the one up there, but it was cheap from On-One.

Will be ordering a Selle Italia Turbo soon, just because I couldn't afford one back in the 80's.
They're cheaper now than they were then!

Take care with those carbon railed saddles chaps, the rails are sometimes thicker than standard and don't take kindly to being clamped in undersized grooves.

Don't ask how I know this...

Selle Italia SLR - 135g of "Why the hell isn't this painful?"

I have one on the MTB and I obviously spend enough time out of the saddle for my bum to get a rest. I tried it on the road bike, mind, and it's not that comfy if I stay seated for 20+ minutes.

Is a £32 Halfords deal too low rent for this party?

No, it's lovely. 🙂

Saddles and tyres are my bike vices:
You can't have enough & they all get used eventually.

Pah, I have one of these - now this is saddle porn (in a kinky S&M sense)

[img] [/img]

Note I didn't say I had it on my bike - tried it and found I didn't really get on, so has been in my bits box for ages. Should really get around to selling it, but comparing current prices to what I paid, it's not actually been that bad an investment!

That looks like a clipped Poodle. 😀

Time for a bike ride, sun's out!

I had a rolls but I thought it wasn't all that - I felt I was always sliding off the back and into the nose...

I present the [url= http://www.tririg.com/articles.php?id=2011_12_Dash_TT9_Saddle ]Dash TT9[/url], here demonstrating the practical nature of a split saddle by carrying a shopping bag on my old Tri bike 😀

Or maybe the "135g of- why the hell did I pay so much money for something that is actually 20% heavier than the claimed weight" 😀 I get on well with my SLR but man was mine overweight.

Proper Weightweenies saddle p0rn has to be this hand made piece of art

54.3 blimey! Doesn't look too uncomfortable either.

Take care with those carbon railed saddles chaps, the rails are sometimes thicker than standard and don't take kindly to being clamped in undersized grooves.

So that would be why the Fizik came with a massive warning tag and instructions attached to the rails!
