nice post! (this thread and seat post) enjoy. make sure it doesn't slip into the seat tube like i did to mine. then they look gross

enjoy the hydration. have you used a hydro pack before? it the only way for me now. i'll still use bottles for the road though.

don't you help salsa with buying his nice bikes? (which is great) then you make the poor kid ride a sub par seat for 10 bucks?

he would probably improve his placings with a nice fast seat.

Sorry if I want my saddles to look nice, but a seat can make or break a bikes looks. However, my Flite is possibly the most comfortable saddle I've ridden, so no compromises in the performance category.
now that is a fast seat! too bad salsa's mom makes him buy his seats at the penny store

I've used a camel back before, just a standard military issue version, But because it was a screw on lid, it was a pain to clean and dry out. I love how the hydra pack is reversible and stuff

You got it right.

I like black saddles.
Unless theres a blue/silver or blue/white one out there that is comfortable, durable, and matches my bike/jersey.

It was a joke on the road bike forums. People were arguing about some trivial fashion thing, when a guy pointed out that they were willing to wear magenta tights.
