Looking at buying a new saddle, Selle Flite has been my go too in recent years, I've Ti's on all my bikes at the mo and am considering a Carbonio version next.

However the Berk saddle looks nice as does the Selle SLR and both would save a chunk of weight. Anyone tried either and a Flite and care to offer an opinion? Also Flite is 143mm right in the middle of the Berk offerings, so which size if going that route?

Only quality saddle I've tried in recent times and didn't like is the Fizik Tundra (Antares alike)

Of course saddles are a very personal thing but any feedback would be welcome

Switched from Selle SLR to Berk and find the Berk more comfortable. However, saddle choice is personal.

I have both but the berk is on a bike I won't be riding until the spring. Saddles are too personal for any one to make meaningful recommendation. The berk saddle has a shape not to dissimilar from the SLR so I a hopeful that it will be comfortable.
