Piccie of the new saddle Arione R1 - what can I say, I didn't go for the Arione 00, which is a full 10 grams lighter then the R1, but around £80 more expensive. The genuine reason was the cost, more the fact that the yellow line in the 00 wouldn't go with my bikes livery :whistle:

Go on, tilt your head!
I very nearly bought a cube when looking for my mtb, I ended up buying a canyon as it was cheaper. (not as cheap as the one you are looking at though!)
Just 'coz you like the look of black bikes here's mine ^_^

Canyon and Ghost make some lovely looking bikes. Shame about the saddle on this one - it needs a setback post for sure, otherwise perfect.

Fizik saddles are lovely but quality control is very poor. I dread having to buy a new Fizik saddle as I usually have to order 5 to get one that isn't a duff!

Mine have come via LBS, so I imagine that they check them prior to selling them, I have had a few Fizik Saddles and the quality has been excellent on all of them.

Looking forward to trying out the R1
