Selle Italia Flite

Advantages: great looking, light weight and comfortable
Disadvantages: uncomfortable for some

...The Flite titanium saddle and its previous incarnations have been my choice of saddle for around the last eight years on some of my mountain bikes. There is one obvious disadvantage to this saddle and that is that the shape might not be to everyone’s liking, its pretty small and does take some getting used to. On the other hand, there are many advantages to this saddle, one of which is the fact that now I’m used to it I find it perfectly comfortable. Main advantages have to include the fact that it is so light weight at just about 200g, the fact that it is really long lasting even when used in the foulest of conditions and also the fact that it looks so sleek and would look fantastic on any bike. I’d would definetely highly recommend this saddle to anyone...... Read review

There is one obvious disadvantage to this saddle and that is that the shape might not be to everyone’s liking, its pretty small and does take some getting used to. Another disadvantage which I've discovered through use was that some of my shorts (including lycra) seemed to bobble a little which became rally annoying and made teh shorts look cheap and almost 'naff' whilst I don;t think the kevlar pannels actually gained me any grip or helped teh longevity of the saddle over the standard leather versions.
