Well, if you really want to rub in your deal and it is Ti...you could probably sell the saddle on eBay for around $100, or more, and then get an even better deal. People love those saddles and they can fetch high prices.

Oh, and I myself just picked up a new bike that I didn't need. Oh well The funny thing is that it turned out to be so nice that the brand new bike I got this summer, which I didn't want to breathe on the wrong way, has been demoted to my rain bike (carbon, instead of steel). How things can change!
Hi,

I'm one of those people who might have bought the bike just to get the saddles. I haven't paid more than $100 for a Flite yet.
