well the saddle i ended up buying was a "replica" of my selle smp forma in naked carbon, I've don't a couple hundred miles on it so far and would say its just as comfy as my selle, obviously a couple hundred miles is no testament to build quality but so far so good

It's fast is broken due to the dangerous point, the cumulative fatigue.



maybe it was made from more glass fiber than carbon fiber materials. :)

I bought one a week ago on eBay for about 13 quid. Upto now it's relatively comfy but absolutely no flex at all. On the plus side it weight around 120g and doesn't creak. The rails are oval but fit on my fsa carbon seatpost easily.

Not sure if this is one of the "replica" shapes. Hylix from ebay. Advertised as 92g, actual 93g. In use now but no big mileage on it.

Tomtop_deals was the seller. Swapped it out already. My ass can't handle that anymore. It was OK on smooth surface but when a bump came along it sent pain right through my spine.

i've got the toupe carbon on aliexpress and i am pretty pleased with it.
not the strongest but it works very well and it's not too uncomfortable but for the winter-trainer use, i switched with a real toupe because of the padding.

I am thinking about getting another one or two in case this one breaks.

What's the sole purpose of this? Save money?!

I did save money for trying a light and bare carbon saddle.
Now that I like the saddle. I feel it is worth to get one or two more.
I would have done the same if it was another saddle. Get one or two more since I always had a hard time finding a saddle that I like and don't want to find it discontinued when I need a new one
Did the same with my monolink Selle italia, I have 3 slr.
