I was just reading the most recent comments and noticed a picture. The last picture is that Riverside Cemetery? With all the great climbing from the river side?

If so, I just did that ride out and back from Aloha last weekend, with all the Council Crest as the cherry on top

Thank you. I recently sold the Bonts. They are more of a chartreuse than neon yellow that you would see with specialized. Bont calls it "super yellow".

How do you like the Specialized Power saddle (what size). Been thinking of giving it a try. Currently on a prologo scratch but looking for a flatter profile.

It has been the perfect saddle for me. They say there is no perfect saddle for everyone, but I feel this is about as close as they have available. I have switched every person that I ride with to get one and they have all been extremely happy with doing so. I have gone through 15 saddles in 7 years. some were ok but those left me thinking they could be better or much better. Absolutely love this saddle.

UPDATE 11-5-15

Got new seat post. The ritchey superlogic was my intention, but the 25mm setback was too much. I needed more than a zero offset and in my research, I came across a Deda Superleggero RS seatpost with 12mm offset.


Out of the Box it came in at 178g. About what I was expecting. I cut off 90mm and sanded it down to get rid of the decals. I thought I read that acetone would work, but it didn't for me. I may get some yokes and Ti bolts, but I have stripped or snapped Ti bolts in the past and dont really want to mess with that again. I'm in no rush.

New picts with the seatpost. LOVE the shape of the Deda Superleggero RS post. The 12mm offset is perfect for my set up.

Looks sick! I've been looking at all the pics of Evos in the Cannondale thread and trying to NOT buy one and yours certainly isn't helping that lol
