I never quite understood the differences in the model I, II and III. I know you seldom see model III style saddles-

I've had a few Avocet saddles over the years but never knew anything about them.
Thanks!

I really wish these things were still available. Great way to color a bike without buying a new seat.

I've amassed a small collection of Avocet Touring II saddles- I'd like to get my grubby paws on a clean III.
Another thing, I've noticed from examples on eBay there are what appears to be different shapes.
