Yeah, I was looking at that, too. Thing is, I'm worried about the texture. I have this thing about grippy materials rubbing against my clothes...like, I can't stand suede-backed leather guitar straps, and I was a little iffy on the suede-like surface of my Charge Spoon until it smoothed out from use. The main reason I'm interested in the Berthoud "racing" saddle is how cool it looks from the side - it would go really well with the overall aesthetic I have in mind for the bike.
Yes, I'm aware that the looks of the bike are secondary to comfort, but who doesn't love a cool-looking bike?
