I am hesitant to order Koolstops online, because it may be Easter before I see them. But, I will try to find alternate shipping so I might get them before next weekend. The Vetta Tri shock saddle was too soft, so a Terry Fly with Ti rails took it's place. The tires also got changed to a set of Conti Xkings I had laying around. They fit like it was made for them. Very happy with my $80 purchase.,,,,BD
