Unicanitor saddle
Can someone provide me with information about this Unicanitor saddle, which is plastic. Is it from the 60s or 70s? Is it known as a model 50? Thanks in advance!

From here it looks 70's. By then they hand dropped the double arc of holes. A view of the forward frame would help.

That's a Mod 50. The 55 had the two rows of smaller holes. Looks like it's probably 70's-ish, tho' they were made from the early 60's(?) into the 80's at least. One of my favorite saddles - comfy, light, everything-proof. Most folks would just look at it and grimace. Evidently they'd never ridden one.

Cheers - thanks for the response. It came on an early 70s bike. I like the shape of it and was curious about how comfortable it would be as a plastic saddle.
