it's just a crap @$$ generic racing saddle with ti rails. really light. don't even know the brand name, but it may look familiar to anyone who has bought a motobecane le champion sl. jschen and i go to talking about saddles the other day, basically i thought i'd just give it a try since my specialized avatar had a tendency to argue with my butt after a certain amount of miles - and usually win. gotta tell you it's more comfy than the avatar, although i'm thinking it's just better suited to a racy riding position. eh... i like it, but i don't know if i like like it. it's just an interim saddle until i find "the one."
