    Hi Guys,

    I was thinking about a tread like this – do you think it makes sense?

    A bike saddle is a very personal thing and the most important part of your machine when it comes to long ride comfort. I thought we could post proposals for saddle swaps, i.e. what saddle you have for a swap and which one you are looking for. If a swap is impossible to match, you can list a price and sell it straight.

    Of course, you can simply post an advert and sell your saddle, so if any of the Moderators believe that this tread brings nothing new, please delete it.

    At the moment I have two saddles that are uncooperative with my own bottom and they are as follows:

    - Prologo Kappa in perfect condition (black with some red and white decals),
    - Fizik Arione CX with carbon rails in good condition.

    I am looking for a Specialized Romin Evo in black, probably 130mm wide.

    If you want to ask the mods something do not do it in-thread, PM them. This is basically an advert. Do not start adverts in the main forum

    If you think that Fizik Arione CX (with carbon rails) is any good to you, then I have one in white / yellow.

    I have a ProLogo Nago PAS, black with white/red/blue detailing. It's primarily a race saddle and does not suit my needs. It is as new and was used for only 14km and then removed.

    Looking for some thing with a little more padding and preferably in white. Anything considered so long as its in reasonably new condition.

    Does anyone have a Regal E that needs a new home?

    I have a Specialized Romin 130mm in White (not Evo) if that's any good to you... swap for the Fizik

    Hi Guys,

    After using the Romin Evo Pro saddle (with carbon rails) for some time I decided to swap it for something else. I would like to try out a Selle Italia Flow with the small cut out or something similar in black colour. Below photos of my Romin. It is generally in top shape except a small split on the cover skin on the rear edge, as shown at the second photo. Carbon rails are in perfect condition.

    Hi, I have a few saddles that are in perfect condition, I too have being buying and trying a lot of saddles -

    1. Fizik Kurve Bull in black 143mm
    2. Specialized Toupé Plus Expert Saddle (Black) 155mm
    3. Specialized Toupé Plus Expert Saddle (White) 155mm
    4. Pro logo Nago Pas saddle (Black) 143mm

    I seem to have settled on the Specialized Romin, for the time being anyway!

    Looking for a Specialized Romin, one of the long-cutout Selle SMPs such as the Stratos, Forma or the Dynamic, or some Selle Italia model with the Flow cutout. 143 width. I'd prefer for it to be black, but I'm not too pushed about that! Am willing to add a few euro for a nicer model.

    Interested in this per chance?? - The selle Italia Turbomatic, like new. Very low miles on this. Beautiful saddle but I need summit with a cut out.
