That's one of the best chop jobs I've ever seen. I love my brooks saddle, but I'm getting a new bike this week and my brooks would look horrible on it. I'm panicing about what saddle to get, I'm finicky with my lady parts. I'm considering doing a chop job myself, but I doubt it will go as smoothly.
I love the bike!
