Kalahari Vegmot Posted October 5, 2017 Author Posted October 5, 2017 2nd hand saddles are like 2nd hand bib shorts and 2nd hand condoms...Not necessarily. If it's been used for a week or a month, it's still good in my eyes. If a condom or bib has been used for a month, different story...
Mongooser Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 all the seats Ive bought came off ex demosgot em cheap and i dont care who's rear used it if its cheap its good
Kalahari Vegmot Posted October 5, 2017 Author Posted October 5, 2017 My question is more: is this legal? Or only through certain channels?
Kalahari Vegmot Posted October 5, 2017 Author Posted October 5, 2017 all the seats Ive bought came off ex demosgot em cheap and i dont care who's rear used it if its cheap its goodYou shouldn't be sitting on a DH bikes' saddle anyways...
Eddy Gordo Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 I always used them old school suede saddles and thought they were very comfy way back. On my reintroduction to cycling a few years ago, I did not like the solid saddles and changed to a gel saddle with the glory hole for men. It was a firmish yet soft saddle and I thought it was great for a while. I now have an SDG on the one bike, a solid saddle and I love it.On the other I have a BrandX saddle with the glory hole and it is even more comfy than the the SDG.
Mongooser Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 You shouldn't be sitting on a DH bikes' saddle anyways...I had a carbon SDG fly saddlesnapped it in half when i landed behind itgot a nice bruise like its shape on my stomach So i have a nice new syncross xc seati dont care if its XC, its not going to stab me to death
Wet Ears Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 2nd hand saddles are like 2nd hand bib shorts and 2nd hand condoms...Take it then that you do not use public toilets?
Kalahari Vegmot Posted October 5, 2017 Author Posted October 5, 2017 You mean this kind of test saddle ?Not one that someone bought to test (i.e. they 'buyed before they tried') Jip. Particularly from private sellers
dave303e Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Take it then that you do not use public toilets? Not aversed to public toilets at all and any tree is a lavatory.But bib shorts and saddles are a personal relationship IMO.
Skinnyone Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 I know at a point, Specialized sold a whole bunch of their test saddles as they were not able to get the usual retail models in stock on time, so they released the test saddles for sale... I bought one a number of years ago and still have it....nothing "illegal" if I were to sell it as I paid for it... If you borrow a test saddle to test and never return it then different story, perhaps not 100% illegal (stand to be corrected), but not exactly morally correct...
Popit Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Still looking for A 143( or whatever the smallest size is) power saddle if anyone has one Specialized Melrose Arch had plenty about 3 weeks ago .I bought the red one .... best money I have spent on ANYTHING ....
Wet Ears Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Not aversed to public toilets at all and any tree is a lavatory.But bib shorts and saddles are a personal relationship IMO.Bib shorts I agree with, saddle - no issue!
Grey Hubs Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 If they can make shoes that mold around your feet for a custom fit and that are commercially viable, why can't they do the same with seats??? Custom fit seats!
