Selle Italia Flite 1990 love or hate?

All that sounds good to me.

The SLRs I have now want you to be in ONE specific spot and finding that one spot isn't easy

I’m still using original flites on my bikes. I’ve tried modern saddles and still go back to my favorite flite genuine gel. Still works with my added poundage.

How do Ariomnes compare? They work so well for me that I don't remember if I liked Flites?
