I've got this unusual compulsion :rolleyes: to mount one of the new Ritchey WCS Vector Groove Saddles on my new blue Ritchey Road Logic frame. Unfortunately, they're not available in the US through normal channels. :( Has anyone seen one in person? Any ideas where to get one in the states?

I did find the Pro version at Cambria for only $25--ordered it just for kicks, but I really want the blue WCS...

I contacted Ritchey about the WCS, they were rather nice, but couldn't help me. They did refer me to several distributors in Europe, but I've been a little leery of paying the $20-25 in shipping fees to get one from Germany. Perhaps that's my only recourse, but I thought I'd see what the group had to say first...

Thanks in advance...

Nope, sorry...This is all I could find of the 2004 model.

Well, I didn't hear back from anybody, so I went ahead and ordered it from Germany. As it turns out, because I don't live in the EU, I don't have to pay VAT tax and that discount just about made up for the $25 shipping. It should be here in 7-10 days. I'll let you know how it fits/looks...
