Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Modern saddle comparable to a San Marco Regal?

I've got a Ti Selle Italia Flite that is just flat our uncomfortable. My commuter/everyday ride sports a classy Regal saddle (white/copper rivets) that is the most comfortable saddle I have ridden to date.
What I don't like about the Flite: too narrow/long
What I like about the Regal: wider/shorter. very little cushion.

Could any of you suggest a more modern/lightweight saddle that would fit comparably to a Regal? What I do like about the Flite is its lightweight, so basically if they make a super light version of the Regal I'd be set.

Thanks.

Team Regal Ti?

https://www.probikekit.com/display.php?code=S0060

I have a normal regal on my normal bike and just picked up a normal Regal Ti that is now on my 2nd bike. non-team Ti isn't that much lighter than the steel railed one. I'm not sure what they do to the Team to make it much lighter.
