Saddle (considering the Brooks Colt)
Particularly the 'raspberry' shade!
Thoughts?
They sell quite a few of the Space Horse model at the shop I "frequent."
If you go raspberry, try to go with matching raspberry Brooks leather bar wrap.
I am trying it on a bike now and so far, so good.
Some people have reported it gets slick after it gets wet, but I haven't had any issues yet.
I also like the look and feel of the Brooks Swallows in the Select series.
If they fit you, it could be a good choice as well.
Good luck with the build. I have seen some very low pricing on the Campy Veloce, Centaur, and Athena gruppos lately.
Might be just the ticket if you don't already have your heart set on the TRPs.
