Actually my daughter suggested it. In yakking with her (she's 9, cool headed and smart.. unlike her dad) about how to finish off my newish bike, she said to get a gold seat for the bike. And I agreed! That'd be... a good cap.











Question is, where can I find a gold color saddle?

Hu elp!

Bac,

If I get this thing, I, seriously, will owe you beyond owing you.

You rock dude. We'll watch to see if I get it, and if I do!!!

william-

the schwinn saddles were on clearance a few weeks ago at nashbar - i think i may have picked up one of the last ones they had for my fixie, cuz i noticed that a few days after i got mine, nashbar didn't have them listed anymore.

there's a guy that sells the same saddle on ebay, though...he's got two of 'em up right now:

i like the saddle - it's a good mix of old school flare and new school attitude...

good luck!

derosa (http://www.derosanews.com/derosa/modules.php?name=DeRosa&op=showbike&bid=18) have one. i'm guessing you have to buy the whole bike to get it though.

that gold handlebar tape does look pretty schweet though...

the selle italia nitrox comes in gold, and it's pretty easy on the old wallet, if i remember correctly.

Yup, that was me! Unfortunately, the saddle is now off my road bike, as I just couldn't justify the harsh ride on my behind. However, it doesn't get any more PIMP than having a pin-up gal on your saddle. I'm now planning on mounting it on the wall. It's WAY to cool to end up on a shelf or in a drawer!
