Five years earlier, in 1976, the Unicanitor black plastic saddles were ubiquitous on racing bikes. I raced on a Brooks Pro that I bought new for $8 from a shop that had no idea. They were $40+ even back then. My Brooks was well broken in, and in retrospect, probably my mileage limiter. Nobody made better, anatomically improved seats until SMP came along.

Agree that unicantors are uniquely terrible saddles. Turbos are awesome. I raced them. Concor supercorsa and Rolls would be fine as well.
Just strap a spare sew-up under it!
