I have a new Fizik Aliante in black. This is the newer model with Ti rails. I'll trade for another new saddle. I just can't seem to get used to the rising back on this thing. So far I've seen and like the Serfas Stinger Comp or that new Specialized Toupe in black.

I have an "AS NEW" Fizik Pavé - rear plastic base/scuff guard is goldish yellow (not metallic gold, just deep yellow/gold).
I used the saddle for 1/2 mile and quickly decided that this was way too narrow for my old butt. It is 130 mm width, which seems defacto for the 'performance' saddles these days.
Leather is in new condition, saddle for all intents, except my short test ride, is new. It has a great shape and has firm but comfortable support. Shame it is too narrow for me.
Saddles I would trade for:
Selle Italia Trans AM XO - this is the saddle listed as 'MTB' by the manufacturer. It has a center channel cutout, more 'old-style' width (150 mm I think...) and is a vinyl cover. One of the cheaper Selle Italia saddles, but it fits me very well. Would like it in excellent condition.
Other saddles I would swap for: Older stye Selle Italia Turbo - not expecting new, but gotta be in OK shape (no tears or big scrapes, no saggy leather). Selle San Marco Strada or Strada Hi-Pro (basically the same), gotta have a solid (no seams) leather top. For Stradas I have no interest in any embroidered or later versions with seams on the seating or side surfaces.The Strada Gel is also not wanted, it has a sewn in center gel panel and is a different shell shape than the older and original 'strada' saddles.
Thanks for lookin

I have a NOS Selle San Marco Rolls saddle. Black leather with gold trim and rails.
Let me know what you have as a trade. I may be looking for a supportive and well-made saddle for my girlfriend. If you have a Lady Turbo, that may work...
Send e-mail to
dave_yee@hotmail.com
as I may not answer or read this thread as often.
Thanks
Dave

I still have the Body Geometry Pro saddle, with white trim. I now also have a like-new Selle Italia Nova saddle for trade as well. It's 280g (138mm). It has a very broad nose and would be excellent for XC/TTrails/Tri. Very nice saddle, but it's just not as good as my Brooks.

San Marco Rolls
I have two San Marco Rolls saddle. One is brand new, never been on a bike and the second has less than two hundred miles on it. I am looking for a new or close to new Terry Fly either Ti or Cromoly makes no difference. Can't get used to the Rolls; but, on my other bike I have Terry Fly that is as comfortable for me any saddle I have tried. Straight swap. I pay for shipping mine and you do the same. email: mmcwhort@bellsouth.net.

Want: Specialized Alias or Toupe black, 143 mm only. I will entertain other saddles that are in the 140 mm width range, especially ones with a cut out.
