    Ha! - and I thought the cut-out thing was a recent invention. I like the saddle from the 1890's with the wicker webbed cut-out in the center.

    I remember the Unicanitor saddle. It was quite popular for awhile in the 70s. Also remember the Ideal from way back when. And the saddle with a sewup tire in back held on by a toestrap - I did that myself for a long time, but the toe strap tended to wear the sidewalls of the tire unless you put a sock around it first.

    Thanks for sharing the site. That was a fun trip down memory lane. And to many places not in my memory.

    Chainring archive

    Check out the chainring archive on the same site. They've got old Campy, Dura Ace, T.A., Stronglight (my old crank), Suntour Superbe Pro (my current crank), a gorgeous Colnago. Also some really funky stuff, like a spoked spider, a 10-armed spider, a front freewheel, and cranks with bent arms. But don't look at the guy with a chainring coming out of his head (that gross!).

    Roller archives

    Teams of women riding rollers. One team in bathing suits. One woman doing a strip tease while riding in a 1948 photo. This stuff is amazing.
