Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Please measure you SLR saddle for me

The shop didn't have one handy to measure.

Could someone please measure on their Selle Italia SLR saddle the distance from the saddle tip to the flat level part of the rails; measure horizontally please.
Before I get a new seatpost with greater setback, it might be the SLR saddle will allow more setback on my Ritchey post just by its rail positions over my current saddle.

And if I don't like the feel of the SLR after I try it, then I'd be back to getting a new seatpost.

There's about 10 different versions of the SLR!

I've got the gel-flow SLR and it's 125mm from the tip of the saddle to the "stop" mark on the end of the rail (measured parallel to the rails)
