Quick question - Is there anything I'd have to worried about getting a saddle with Ti rails for Mountain biking? I am looking at the Sel Itallia(I think thats how you spell it) Flite Prolink Gel. It has Ti rails. I weigh 170 and ride/race XC=no big drops. I have heard bad stories about bending these Ti rails. Has anyone experienced this? If you know about the strengths of these saddles, do you think there would be a problem for me based on the info above? THANKS a lot for the suggestions!

I just sold a bike that had a selle saddle with TI railes, and when I used it I weighed 185lbs. Dont worry about the rails bending, because they wont.
