NOT Endorsed by Lance Armstrong

"The Real MAN® saddle KICKS BUTT!" For once, I believe the advertising claim. Bicycle enthusiast Sheldon Brown has introduce a bike seat that is truly unique. Instead of the usual saddle made from "squishy gel foam", Mr. Brown is selling a saddle made from "solid granite from Canada's rugged Gaspé peninsula" mounted on "space-age Titanium undercarriage". Before he will sell to you, they want a chemical analysis of your blood to determine if your testosterone level is high enough. For those who don't pass the test, there is a less expensive poured-concrete version, with a cast iron frame.
