Attention Urban hipsters

Seen this a few times - £400 for a saddle???!!

For that much you probably aren't going to use it but I guess it appeals to both cyclists and PS fans. I don't think it's stupidly priced, it would last longer than a pair of white Porcs

I like it, wouldn ever ride it though if I owned it so cannot see the point. I dont imagine these were desgnied for the home market though, more likely for the lucrative Japanese fixie fixated crowd. Why would Paul Smith, the arbiter of British design do a Kashimax saddle? Surely a Brooks would have been more apt.

Anyway heres another of Paul's designs this time on a proper British classic (oh and another oportunity to post a mini pic )

Exactly - it's well known he loves Japanese culture and is a keen cyclist and they love him too
