Oh, and, if you are not taking long rides, why are you looking for a saddle? Go get a free one from you LBS's junk bin. |
If you are not in any rush, and can go a little higher, watch for Nashbar to put a Brooks b-17 on sale. Considering the sale price, and a 20% off coupon, I just paid $55.99.
A wonderful saddle for a very decent price. Black or Honey colored. It's a gorgeous saddle. Best comfort I have ever ridden. |

Did you read deeper? They clearly state the prices are not always up to current differences. Google says 25 pounds is about $43. Plus probikekit says they will charge your card in pounds (almost always an additional fee), plus shipping, plus waiting for it to come from thousands of miles away needlessly, plus the fact that it's not even in stock.
To save a measly few dollars. |
look on craigslist...a few weeks ago i got a fiziks arione for 40 bucks. the next day i got a serfas aria for 20. lots of good deals if youre patient.

I heard good things about the Ritchey Comp Streem. They go for $25-40.

ccm pro makes a decent knockoff of the selle italia royale seat. Nycbikes.com sells them for $12 a pop. I've bought two, ridden on one for a good 50 miles or so and i find it pretty comfy.

I just found out about Terry Fly saddles. The terry fly cromoly is pretty sweet, i think it is like $50.
|
Looking at this - Sette Nyx Saddle - $35
Weight: 190g Width: 134mm Length: 265mm Just 2mm more narrow than my mtb seat which I find pretty comfortable. I like the weight too. 6'5"/215lb - needing a little wider saddle. |
I got a nice Fizik Rondine saddle on sale at Nashbar for $24.99 a couple of weeks ago. I finally mounted it today and took it for a test ride. Very comfortable. The best thing I can say about it is that I completely forgot about it the entire ride. Even comes with a little button-detachable tool bag.

I picked up my Selle Italia Ti/Kevlar Flite for $2.00 at a LBS swap meet. :)
|
I like the swobo saddle. It's my default saddle for cheap builds.
|
rolls for 12 pounds :)
|
I like WTB saddles, for road as well. The Speed V should be under $40. I think I got it for ~25 as Cambriabike.
