I wasn't happy with my saddle on my road bike, so I decided to splurge and spend some money. I bought a Selle Italia SLR with carbon shell and ti rails

Yeah, I haven't found "that" seat yet, but I have an SLR I just stuck on one of the bikes, so far I like it ok. It's a lot better than that damn Arione anyway!

The SLR killed my @ss on my old road bike. Part of me wants to try it out on the Kestrel, seeing as how the bike is a better fit for me. As it stands, the Specy Alias has been good to me so far.

Anyway, the SLR is a nice piece of eye candy. Nice grab.

Hmmm...I usually like Selle Italia stuff, but I've found my Arione to be very good. Fizik mtb saddles are my favorite- at least as good for me as Selle Italia.

People dig the Arione, but it just didn't work for me. Really painful on the 40+ mile rides.
I have a WTB something or other on the Look right now, it seems to be pretty good, white to match the tape, always important...

I forgot to mention that the saddle is leather.....I'm hoping I can get some conformity to my backside

I'm liking the Airione right now, but have only ridden it with a USE Alien. I was good until about 1 mile from home tonight when it nosed up. I will not be doing any more rides on that post. :rant:
