It is definitely narrower.  I measured 150mm with calipers.

 150mm wide; not the 157mm the the Aspin/Aravis are spec'd at.

 Wondering if this is a discontinued model??  Anyone familiar with these 
 saddles??

The Galibier/Soulor only have two bolt assemblies visible on the rear of 
the saddle, unlike the Aspin/Aravis, which have four, like this one. It 
does look a little bit narrower than an Aravis in your photos, but I can't 
tell if it's just distortion in the image.

Here’s the side view it seems to have the same amount of rivets as the Aspin, but is only 150 mm wide.Sent from my iPhoneOn Dec 2, 2022, at 6:15 PM, Nikko in Oakland  wrote:The Soulor and Galibier don't have the option for saddle bag hooks on the rear.

The Soulor and Galibier don't have the option for saddle bag hooks on the 
rear. Can you shoot a side-profile of the saddle so we can help?

Looks like a Galibier (ti version of Soulor), which is claimed 146mm wide.
