I used a wider Brooks saddle that was "pre-softened" and came with a
slightly textured or weatherized top. I'm not sure if they still make this
model. The only one I see with a similar profile comes with
springs:
No affiliation with owner but I spotted this beauty on Craigslist this
morning:

Alas, I never see these in my pint sized dimensions.

Joe,
Thank you! I found them. Odd. I had never heard of this model (this is what
happens when you jump away from the list for awhile). That toptube is lng
(on paper I would be a more likely candidate for the 48cm but breaking out my
tape measure to confirm). Best, Lesli larson

If I missed it, what are the seat and top tube measurements? I am closer to a
48cm or 50cm but it might be in range. Is is for 700c tires?

Part of me wonders if I should opt for the custom option so I could get
something a little more petite (with same specs).
Also, if anyone knows of a used ROADEO or RIV road in a pint size (48-50)
on the market, let me know!

Do you have a TA cyclotourist crank in 160 or 165 that you would like to
sell. Are there recommended compact surrogates with similar finish and
low-Q factor?

I'm trying to track down a pair of On One Midge bars with a 25.4 clamp -
preferably in silver finish (though I will toil to scrub off black
anodization). Looks like distributor is moving to a wider clamp sizes and
no longer has these in stock.

Hey guys! Thanks for all the leads! Too bad the back-in-production cranks
are so costly these days. Germany looks like a decent option.. as does the
ebay auction.

Hey there. I'm starting to collect parts for a new rando bike project (a
very slo-mo, down the line project). I've always used TA Cyclotourist

Midge would make for a better choice. And how durable are those Lierra

I just registered for London-Endinburgh-London for August. I'm starting to
do some advanced intel on bike shops in London that might be able to help
