Selle Italia is currently crowdfunding this leaf-sprung, composite saddle design:
Selle Italia says: “Our goal is to make the world’s first truly comfortable ultra lightweight saddle.”
The crowdfunding contribution levels start at $199, which you’ll get a saddle for – and the eventual RRP is listed at $300-400… Oof.
What do you think – comfy performance perch or unfortunate cigar-cutting accident waiting to happen?

ooooh, the top one; sends shivers down my spine, that sort of thing was banned centuries ago…
makes me winch! – wouldn’t know what would be most painful, trapping one or extricating it
“Selle Italia is currently crowdfunding this leaf-sprung, composite saddle design” – is it not Selle Anatomica?
bigphilb6000 has a good point! A quick edit might be in order!
