Any one have any experience with these: http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-196g-VELO-WHITE-TITANIUM-FIXIE-BIKE-SADDLE-SEAT_W0QQitemZ350241317911QQcategoryZ106952QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp4340.m183QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DSICD D%26its%3DI%252BC%252BS%252BIA%26itu%3DSI%252BUS-BWR%252BUCI%252BIA%252BUCC%252BPSS%252BCRS%252BIT%252BUA%26otn%3D8%26ps%3D33

They seem pretty decent, and only $30 shipped. I've searched online, but can't really find any info on these. Apparently they're just Velo Ti saddles. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

I have some random black Velo brand saddle, its garbage. Replaced it after about 20 miles.

I mean they SAY it's Velo, but who knows if it is actually since it is being sold on ebay. That's why I'm still hesitant. Has anybody purchased this specific saddle?

sure, it could be handcrafted from bear feces...


but i'd say the majority of saddles being sold for under 60 dollars are made by velo one way or another, so i'd imagine they're telling the truth.
