I'm a Newbie to Retrobike so (what-the-hell) I'd like to nominate my 1990 Raleigh Dyna-Tech 2070 with Campagnolo Centaur MTB groupset, Campagnolo Mirox rims and Campagnolo Electa saddle.

Full specs available here http://www.retrobike.co.uk/gallery2/mai ... emId=50297

Nice Dynatech. Poll is up and running this month but we'll enter it for Jan 09.

Very nice machine. Please post more details in Readers Bikes, pre1997!

Is that an inflatable Campag saddle?

It seems no one wants to explain me why my Xizang haven´t went to the poll, being presented here, on page 6. Also someone have deleted my posts about this issue. Any personal reason? John, as the admin of this site could you please get in touch with me by email. I do not want to cause trouble, its not such a big deal, i just want to know whats wrong.

Thanks.

Hi BoyBurning,

Yep it is an inflatable saddle. There is a rubber 'bladder' between the base and leather top, and just under the nose is a valve where you can pump it up. for more details see the Campy Only website. http://www.campyonly.com/reviews/electa.html (Oh and the 'trim' on the saddle is Gold Plated).

Because I'm used-to riding a (hard?) Brooks saddle on my touring bike, just sitting on the Electa deflated feels a lot comfier, so I have never actually tried inflating it and riding it in armchair-mode.
