New saddle

TownyDC

Looking to spend up to £30 on a new saddle, average miles per ride about 25 to 30 so not a lot of time in the saddle but i'm looking to replace a white saddle for a black one as the white is now looking very grubby.
Any ideas?

It's a very personal thing, but I absolutely love the Charge Spoon. Can be had for about £20 at various places online.

If you can stretch to 40 quid then have a look at the Fabric Scoop. Made by the same people as the afore-mentioned Charge Spoon I believe. They do them in 3 different types depending on your riding style.

There is a huge amount of variation in the range of saddles available, wide, narrow, rounded, flat, padded or bare shell. The only saddle recommendation I can give, is to take advantage of a bike shop's saddle loan service and try out as many as you can.

San Marco Ponza Arrowhead Saddle £14.99
Planet X Exocet Saddle £29.99
San Marco Ponza Power Saddle £14.99

Personally I've been testing out a planetx team saddle and so far I'm quite impressed with it's comfort and it's 170g.

Good choice. If I had £30 to spend on one saddle, this is the one I would choose again. I have one on my winter bike, and I have bought far more expensive saddles, but this one is the comfiest for me.

I'd check out the FWE Saddles. They're really cheap and decent.
I think with your budget, you may be forced to look at second hand though
