HAVE: Bontrager RL saddle - feels like it's the 128 mm version, but I'm not positive. Came stock on my 2008 Madone 5.5 Pro. Looks basically brand new but has maybe 2k miles on it. It's black/gray with yellow underside.
WANT: Something just a touch wider, like 140-150 mm. I'd take another Bontrager seat but would be interested anything of equal quality. I'd also throw in cash or parts sweeten the deal if you have something really nice to trade.

HAVE: Brooks B17S in black with ~250 miles on it and a minor curb rash on the right side (can post pics). Lightly Proofhided a couple of times, but is still incredibly firm and sounds like a bongo when tapped.
WANT: Brooks B17 (regular length) in black. Lightly used would be perfect, not interested in heavily broken-in and don't expect to trade straight across for a brand-new one.

Have: a backup used Fizik Arione in blue / silver stripe. (Rail says Titanio - an older model). Cut in one spot and worn, still usable. Only changing due to color - I upgraded bikes and ended up with a different color scheme.
Want: Fizik Arione in another color (red, black, gray, white maybe). Or some other bike gear.

Want: I don't know... A decent comfort style seat for my cruiser project? Brooks knockoff or something like it. Or some inverse levers 23.8 fit, mostly want a seat like described, though.

Have: Velo "Super Light" off my BD bike. Less than 10 miles on it.
Want: Bontrager SSR WSD in all black.
I'd consider the men's version but would prefer the wider lady's version. I'm currently running this saddle in white/black, but the white is looking grimy after only 3 weeks.
Would also be willing to consider other decent looking, wider saddles that look good.

Have: Selle Italia XO Flow- New take off. A couple of marks on rails from being mounted, but otherwise looks brand new. Color is black.
Want: Specialized Alias/Avatar/Romin/Toupe. Would prefer something that is black with no tears, but some wear is ok.

Want to know:
I have a Trek, not Bontrager, gel saddle with cut out and reflective rear. Circa 2004/2005? More of a commuter saddle than a racing saddle.
I would like to swap for something lighter and with less padding. One small rip on the right hand rear side. Would anyone be interested? If so I will post pics.

Wanted Brooks B66, 67 or 68
Looking for one of the above, mens version. Well used okay as long as it is in working order and complete. I would prefer brown or tan, but would not rule out black. It is for a vintage coffee colored Raleigh three-speed.
Sorry I have no saddles to trade.
