Review on Selle Italia Turbo Vintage 1980 Saddle by Michael Freemason

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Vintage Fun: Seats and Saddles

I rode my Super Record equipped '86 Guerciotti in an original Turbo saddle. After wearing out this saddle, I've always complained about how the more modern saddle looked on my vintage steel horse. Now I have that vintage look again. While it's not a replica (the original had chrome roof rails), it's light enough for my well-trained step not to snag a 20-mile ride. Any potential buyer should consider that this saddle is over 30 years old. as comfortable as the modern design of the Selle Italia, especially on long journeys. For a relaxed, medium-length café trip, that's more than enough.

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Mostly OK, but...
