Is it just me or so modern saddles make the old hard leather arse-busters feel like a hemmoroid pillow by comparison?
I have an Italia TT flight on my RR bike and it's pretty (165gms) good but a tad wide and hurts early on in a ride until I settle in. I got a Fiz'ik Aerone with my new GT and it has seams down the middle which annoy the crap out of me. I've got a bunch of other seats I've collected over the years but they're all rubbish. No the old Concor beats the ***** out of all the newer ones.
