I may end up picking up a cheap black saddle, but after looking at this in more detail, this appears to be a vintage Selle Italia Turbo Bernard Hinault saddle. I will take T-Mars word that this was not stock, but was likely switched out when the bike was new - yet even though it is suede, it isn't showing wear. Anyone know how much these saddles tend to go for?
