So on my new Boone with Trek's septets thing means you cannot fit a Rolls on it.

So far I have tried

Fabric flat Scoop
Fizik Aliante - close but this is what I transitioned from Turbomatics
Charge Spoon

But none have come that close

Prologo Scratch?
Cambium C15?
Specialized Toupe?

These are on the list but does anyone have any recommendations for an exposed rail type saddle that is Rolls like??

Thanks very much
Rick

Can you show us a picture of the saddle rails clamped (attempted to be clamped) onto the seatpost?

You may need to find a Bontrager saddle you like.

I had to choose between saddle and frame I think the saddle would win out - I know I could always find a frame that worked for me. On the other hand for the saddle - you might never again find that perfect love.

I was on Rolls and Turbo saddles for years. I've found the Scatch Pro in the wider width to work well for me. I tried a bunch of other saddles but kept going back to the benchmark of the older saddles. The Scratch Pro was the first saddle that I tried that I didn't continue to play around with in the search for a position that worked. hope this helps.
