Selle-An-Atomica looking for Beta Testers of new saddle.
Just received an email from Selle-An-Atomica that says they're looking for Beta Testers for the new Titanica X which is designed for 200+ pound riders. If you're picked, and you like the saddle at the end of the testing, you get to keep it.

I submitted my app. Had to add up my monthly miles. Hope they don't think I'm exaggerating.

Same here. I ride a Selle now, and I can't wait to check out this new offering.

I've ridden 3 Titanicos from 235-210 lbs now. I've completely sworn off everything else. But, I still slowly stretch them out and make them squeak a bit. I hope I can give feedback on this before it goes for sale. I'll end up with a few either way, but it would be a lot of fun to get to contribute to the design.

Didn't matter 
Got an e-mail last night and I don't ride enough miles apparently. But they did give me a discount for one when they come out next spring.

Not complaining just a little disappointed. The discount is nice and I'll probably buy one in spring. kjc9640 simply must tell us about it.
