Re: Look what the cat dragged in................... a ‘96 Y-TREK

Here she is in all her darkness…. I think the odd spot of yellow and red from the Flite Evo, the Swiss DT, the Porcs and the Easton cockpit are just enough…

Im curious about that saddle, having never seen one in person nevermind touched one, i assume there is padding, its not just a carbon shell is it?

Nope it’s a single sheet of carbon fibre - not as uncomfortable as you might think

As my technical assistant says.. “just” carbon fibre... accept on closer inspection you can see some clever weave work. I was a bit sceptical and did think this saddle might just be for photos but then I thought I might as well try it.. I was pleasantly surprised it has a fair amount of give.

Just checked the Trek over before setting off for Dolby... it seems to have developed some play on the non drive side... . so that’s staying at home.. will investigate this evening
