Well I picked up a carbon saddle from eBay which was shipped from China for $35.
Got it today and tried to mount it only to find the rails are a bit wide. It's really stiff so was wondering if ok & safe to ride with by squeezing it a bit to fit in the clamp and tighten down?

There seems to be some variance in the width of the top-down seatpost clamps. Saddle rails should be able to withstand some amount of bending to get them to fit.
ok i just installed it.. figured it's $35 and worth a try. the rails did pop into place.. thank you guys for the advise.
needed a different saddle to use on my indoor trainer CX bike but didn't wanna spend another $199 to get a romin evo pro.
the weight is 155g with padding, which isn't bad. the downside is the rails is pretty short in terms of adjustment (forward and backwards).
