The next best thing is this goofy Avocet, and while I'm lamenting the fact that it is alloy (and therefore, somewhat resembling a higher-quality piece of kit) I'm quite relieved that it is still a piece of garbage, with super annoying adjusting bolts and galled up threads. Should fit in nicely and still give me some points for having a different maker on the bike (seriously, an Avocet seatpost ??)






And whaddya know, fits great!





This saddle is not just a 'bum hatchet', but a full on bum chainsaw. As much as I LOVE tetanus, we also have the femoral artery to consider. Therefore, it's gonna get a 'safety wrap' of HVAC seal foam, topped with a ton of obvious GRAY duct tape, because we wouldn't want anyone seeing the bike from a distance and confusing black duct tape with a legitimate seat covering.







I might even patent this awesome anatomical foam cutout shape.






Looks like I'm going to need a LOT more duct tape before I'm fully satisfied, but check it out. Sort of has a sweet, aero look to it, don'tcha think? Right at home on the Crapamount.
