For me, that would depend on who sat on it last...

I'm sure is going to sell like crazy. If it's expensive, it's got to be good.......

+1, after 1 ride I gave imy arione away.I can't ride a "regular" Arione, with the tacky stripe down the middle. And I am not sensitive to saddles at all. I just can't ride it.

But the smooth version? I can ride it all day long. Weird, eh?

Just to state the other position - The Arione has become my saddle of choice. I haven't found a perfect saddle yet, but this one works best for me. San Marcos Regal and Rolls are also contenders.

None of these cost $400, though...

Stick with the folks who have been doing this for years. AX Lightness saddles are reliable, have go fast comfort and nothing but the sticker to peel off.

just stupid! This would be nicely matched to a Lance helmet for $190, and many other overpriced bits. There's a sucker born every second. :beer:
