Saddle Love!!
Today I went out for my 1st ride on my new San Marco Regal Replica (in white of course!) and I am in love!!
4 hr ride, no numbness, not really any soreness.
I previously used a Specialized Toupe in a 143 and whilst I liked that also, anything over 2 or so hours on it and I got very sore!
I'm happy to put up with the extra weight as the difference in comfort is huge.
I was a bit sceptical on the regal before I bought it as a few people around said it is a "hard" saddle.
No complaints from me.
Definately a recommended saddle!!

I agree that the Regal is an excellent saddle! And it has been around for awhile; it's not a new invention.
