SOME THINGS COME BACK BECAUSE THEY NEVER GO AWAY
Origins by Selle Royal |
This week we have a very interesting review, Selle Royal's friends sent us two models of its new saddle retro collection called "Origins". Remember the saddles of the 70's and 80's? Personally I remember when I was young and I got my first BMX bike, wearing a red plastic saddle ultramodern at the time, was the envy of my friends! Well, Selle Royal has returned to manufacture the famous Aeroyal! Incredible memories it brings me ...
And, do you remember racing bikes from the 70's? Many top riders wore saddle famous model, called Contour Royal... and it is back to manufacture too!

During these days we could test these two saddles on our test bike Pinky Fixie and the truth, we have found that are fantastic, a touch too retro for our bike.
