    Brand: Avocet
    Model: O2 40R
    Rails: Titanium
    Cover: Black Leather
    extras: black plastic bumpers on back edges
    weight: 220g
    condition: good.

    THis is the classic, comfortable lightweight saddle by Avocet. From
    the generation before the anti-numbnuts design. For those into
    classics, this saddle was seen on Team Motorola bikes in the early
    90's--I think Andy Hampsten won at Alpe d'Huez riding this model and
    Lance won the World's on it as well. This design is both more
    comfortable and better looking than its newer brothers. It has some
    shape similarities to the Selle Italia Flite, but with a bit more
    padding in the rear. This particular model is used. Enough to break it
    in for more comfortable riding. Blue avocet logos on the sides of hte
    nose are starting to wear off. There is also a small cut on the back
    right next to the blue avocet logo on the right side (your butt won't
    touch it, so it won't wear further). Small compression wrinkles are
    starting to appear in the leather on the flanks mid-saddle. All in
    all, a great saddle and one you are going to have a hella time finding
    anywhere else. It's a pity Avocet stopped making it.
