    You can custom-order the Fizik Vitesse in all pink:

    Kind of expensive to order from the US though.

    I will say that this saddle came stock on my road bike and I thought it was quite comfortable (I replaced it with the Arione because I was already used to the Arione and actually preferred the narrower width, but I didn't have any problems with the Vitesse).

    Specialized makes a few of their women's saddles with varying pink accents. One is white with hot pink accents, a few have the typical pastel pink, and at least one has pink accents and a pink pearlescent tint everywhere. Worth checking their website out.

    I have the Sella San Marco on 3 of my MTBs - in 3 different colors, including pink . I race on this saddle, and have just come home from 3 days of 3+ hours/day on this saddle. It's comfortable for ME, but everyone is different.

    I also have the Fizik in pink (and gray) on my road bikes. Also love this saddle - very comfy.

    I will caution though, that what works for me may not work for you! But the pink sure does look nice .

    Just an FYI to the OP...Nashbar has the San Marco Aspide Glamour in Pink, Black, and White for just $79.99...that's a pretty good deal if I'm not mistaken. However, I don't know what their return policy is on saddles. I'm actually very interested in trying out this particular saddle in black. I've been using a Terry Butterfly Tri Gel saddle for the last year and a half, and while it served me well...lately I've had some "issues" with it. Mainly sore sit bones. So I'm not sure if the saddle is too wide, or not wide enough. Plus, I'm starting to think that the gel padding in it, is more than I need or want. I'm a long distance rider, and I've always heard/read that the longer distance you do, the firmer the saddle should be. The Terry is generously padded (when I press my finger into the seat, it sinks in fairly deep. Perhaps the padding is just wearing down and getting softer, but nonetheless, it's not really working for me now. So I think I'd like to try out a firmer saddle that has less padding, like the Glamour.

    I have this saddle in black and love it. The second ride was a little tender as my seat bones got used to it but there is no padding to sink into and expose the soft bits. After my 3 month lay up I had no problem getting back on and enjoying it!

    Oooh, that's great to know! I'd love to hear from anymore ladies out there that are using (or have used) the San Marco Aspide Glamour saddle. I'm getting close to pulling the trigger on buying one, but would like a little more feedback from those that have tried it. I've already tried the Cobb V-Flow Plus saddle, and ended up returning it because my sit bones protested very loudly using that saddle for 300 miles. I switched back to my Butterfly Tri Gel and have been using it ever since...but I think the generous gel padding in that saddle is starting to either soften up too much, or my sit bones just don't like it the squishyness of it.
