Cannondale Quick Saddle for my Giant Escape?
Are these Hybrid bike saddles universal in fitting the seatpost. I want to put the Cannondale Quick Saddle on my Escape and worried if its going to fit.

Most saddle rails are made to fit most seatpost clamps..
seatposts are usually bought for the build by the manufacturer,
who is making the frames for the brand of the importer who hires their production .
not made by them .
Now there is No longer a Cannondale factory in Pennsylvania ..
they are also made in Asia.

Before I bought one off ebay I'd go by your LBS that sell cdales. They probably have some customer takeoffs laying around that you could grab.

It is a comfy saddle, ain't it?? 
Lots of things kept me coming back to the Cannondale & but one of the first things I always noticed compared to all the other hybrids was just how great that saddle felt. Not to small, not too big, not too thin, not too fat......Juuuuuuust right!

Cannondale sure does make a comfortable seat and handlebar. I replaced the flat bar on my Escape with one from the Quick series yesterday.

Leaving the US must've given them access to some kind of new technology;the saddles on my BBU's and F600 suck. The Hooligans' are ok for short rides,but that's it. Only stock saddles I've ever liked were the MTB style WTB's.
