Jeff — Since the original requester has opted out, I’d love to buy it, if 
it is still available. Will send a pm.

Looks great just from the glimpse of it. What kind of custom are you having

curious to see the red bits with the purple... that'll be unique.

Hello all who have responded and thanks for your interest.  The saddle has 
sold to the first person whose private message got to me.  I checked the 
forum after that message had been received and found all these other 
interested folks.  I'm quite sorry their messages somehow did not get to 
me.  I've never had problems getting messages to others from either my Mac 
desk top or my Motorola Droid.  Hope y'all can find similar saddles to 
satisfy your needs.  Steve.

[lconley]

Brooks no longer makes the B-68 and the Rivet equivalent (the Loveland) 
weighs almost a pound more than a B-68, might as well get a B-67 at that 
weight. I no longer am comfortable on something as narrow as a B-17 or 
C-17. The C-19 and Rivet Loveland are about the only wide, 
non-sprung,single rail saddles at this point.  The B-68 seem to me to be 
more comfortable than either, so I buy them when I can.

Chris, it looks like you have dibs on the saddle. I didn't reply until this 
morning. Off topic, but only a little, is this: The only way I can see 
someone's email is on the daily digest I get, if they have posted or replied 
that day. Otherwise, I can't see them on my Mac, even when I go to the desktop 
version (it gives the beginning and end of addresses only.) But desktop allows 
you to reply to author only. But when I do that the email always gets kicked 
back as rejected. Does anyone else have these issues?

that's a nice looking saddle. just out of curiosity is that honey or
