I just ordered a honey brown one from Wiggle. It was $29.95 + $11.00 shipping. Not bad either.

Charge Ladle - Comfy Bargain
To disable ads, please log-in.
Got one of those to replace the horrible bontrager men's saddle on my mountain bike, it's fab!!! Pretty lightweight, very comfy, firm but not rock-hard and an absolute steal at £20! Comes in pink and black, plain black and honey brown. Not sure if you can get them in the US, but if you can, give it a go!!!!
One day, I'm going to buy a cottage in a small village and become its idiot!

Hmmm I have been thinking about adding purple accents to my mountain bike and that black swirl saddle looks cool. I need a new saddle, how wide is it?

Hmm. That might be narrow enough. Got to think about it.

Mine finally arrived!

However, I prefer a little bit longer in the nose (Ladle 245mm long, 148 mm wide). Maybe next time I'd try their Spoon saddle (278 mm long, 138 mm wide).
