Change of saddle on the Specialised Creo SL

After last weeks rather bumpy cinder track training ride from Hetton Lyons, I decided to swap the saddle. I took the original saddle off the bike as soon as I bought the bike and fitted a spare Selle Italia SLR 145g saddle. I have these fitted on several bikes and have had no real problems with them.
As I have been selling off my fleet of bikes I have been removing my own saddles are refitting the original saddles, so I have a stock of spare saddles inc a Selle Italia SLR XP 189g version.
Its a little rough around the edges but still in perfect working order as they say. It offers around double the padding as a normal SLR and it a lot more comfortable on the rear end over the bumpy stuff.
I was going to fit my Brooks C13 oval carbon railed saddle but that would mean either buying a new USE sumo clamp kit or swapping the seat post over to one that clamps 9mm x 7mm oval rails. I have a carbon Cannondale seat post which would have been spot on and a Thompson Elite post but it is far too long and did not want to cut it down.

 

 

 It was also time to charge the Extender Battery! It did not need it at Scarborough / Whitby as I only went one way.
