Went it to buy a saddle...

[slg]

Came out with a new saddle but attached to a new bike!



Now need some decent weather to give it a try.

Best logic I can think of :-)

Managed to get a short run in it...first fall already, luckily only scratched the seat & rear deraillieur! Not used to the different type of spd & pedal fitted... more used to the mtb pedal fitting.

Great bikes. My mum has the 2011 model and she loves it.

I see that the wheels are different from the 2011, which has DT Swiss which have the loudest free hub I've ever heard on a road bike!

Is that a disc brake on the back?

Not only is it a disc brake but it looks like a CARBON disc brake - super blingy ( also)

Will have the 'carbon disc' removed this week

Is the saddle on the bike the one you went in to buy?

How musc do you want for it, thinking of converting mine to discs. Do you also have a front one?

Unless you want to use a plastic chain guard thingy as a disk brake, you probably dont want it

Actually.....I can sell you an identical pair for £100, including postage. if they feel a bit plasticy it's only due to the type of carbon used.

I'd love to see an exact breakdown of the thought process

"So a saddle costs £30, but then I have to spend time fitting it....and my peddles are getting a bit old too, so if I fit a new seat I may as well fit new peddles too, which takes the total to about £60, which isn that far off £2000, so really I may as well just by a whole new bike"

I suppose no one can complain, you did theoretically buy a saddle, it was just a 2000 pound saddle that came with some free accessories.
