I'm helping a colleague get sorted with a new bike after his Nishiki Alien was discovered to have several cracks around the head tube. He wants to change the saddle and get something a bit more comfortable, so the original seat from his Nishiki is up for grabs.

Afraid these saddle were a little before my time, so apologies for the lack of details.

It's a Vella Gel Turbo Saddle.

Marked 1989 on the underside and made in Italy

I'd say it was in pretty good condition given its age. It's was used when the bike was first acquired and sat in the shed for the last decade or so. Few little scuff marks, that I'm sure could be treated.

I've given it a quick wipe over, but haven't used anything to hide any marks etc, so what you see is its genuine condition.

£20 plus postage?

Seems squidgy on the top section, especially on the rear section. Doesn't seem to have much padding on the side though. Sounds like how it should be, padded where its needed?
 
Hi.....could i get a pic of the underside to see the condition of the rails please? cheers Ant
 
No problem Ant:

Paint has come away where seatpost was clamped to rails. Slight signs of corrosion in two bits, but looks pretty good to me.
 
ooh sorry rude of me...I'll pass on it though thanks.....and probably regret it. GLWS :cool:
