Hi,

I posted about the charge spoon and before I get one am a little worried as the saddle I was thinking of replacing looks a bit like the spoon. Its a Concept SL that came with my Focus Varido Expert, its made by VELO like the Charge spoon so dont want to waste money for the same saddle. So before I buy one, do you think it could be the same saddle??? :oops:

    it probably is yes - also the same as the std saddle that came with my langster - the specialized 'sport' or something - both have VELO on the base.

    (i did actually change the saddle for a spoon - but only becuase I m a bike tart and wanted a brown one to go with the bike!)

    (i also got the matching charge bar tape in brown too - oh the shame...)

    I have the Brown Spoon - for less than £20 - its fantastic. As comfy as the saddle that cost £80 !

    not sure i'd go that far!

    it's not a patch on the Toupe on my other bikes - i couldn't stand it for much longer than an hour - too much padding - too squidgy.

    it's ok on my fixed as i only use that for short blasts - and of course, it was brown along with the paint!
