Best RED SADDLE? That doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

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

This may be a dumb question, but why is the MODERN look a lot SLIMMER than the classic look? I'm talking about the Soma Kamisori...

I prefer the Regal. Not terribly expensive and worth every penny after several hours (like any good saddle that fits).

If he doesn't want to spend for a Flite, he ain't going for a Regal. Try again.

SOMA Fabrications. $60 online but I've seen them for about $45 at local stores in SF.
