I've heard others say the same, but I find it okay. I did have an absolute shocking hard saddle for for years though early on, so maybe I toughened up. My brother went from a Rolls to an Arione
and has been perfectly happy. To sum up: Saddles = personal choice.

Great dresses those. I like the bottom pic with the chick next to Chris the V. From the way her skirts hanging and the cheeky smile, you'd almost think Chris went for the fiddle before the shot was taken. And who could blame him?!

scanning the letters in the SMH today to see what they printer RE miranda devines article, this was my fave.
Miranda Devine's diatribe against vegans, cyclists, Canberrans, Greens, Labor, the RTA, koalas, buses, trains, light rail and Clover Moore was seriously deficient. She forgot to also denigrate unionists, commies, Asians, public education, feminists, whale lovers and poofs.

I put a new rear derailleur cable on my roadie yesterday, and discovered the old one was hanging on by two threads - literally.
I must check my brake cables

Same here.
Eyeballing it, the rails look the same length as any other saddle I own (I bought it to slidew it back a tad more, looked long in the shop).
But hey, that extra 3cm of plastic sticking out the back does heaps. When I use it, it makes my little seat pack look smaller I spose.
