{"product_id":"velo-orange-smooth-touring-saddle","title":"Velo Orange Smooth Touring Saddle","description":"\u003cp\u003eHere's a lightweight, but wider, saddle designed for folks who keep their handlebars at or above saddle height. The idea was to make a wider, inexpensive and lightweight saddle that feels something like a leather saddle and has a classic appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 165mm wide it's about the same width as a Brooks B17 leather saddle. But this is somewhat deceptive because there are no rivets or a flaring leather \"skirt.\" So the sitting area is comparable to a slightly wider leather model. At 425g, the weight is significantly less than that of a modern leather saddle. Length is 282mm, about the same as a Brooks Swallow saddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe smooth texture allows you slide around and get comfortable during long rides and ascents. The top is extremely water resistant - great for touring and city bikes. The body is thermo-plastic with a layer of high density foam. The rails are chromoly. All materials are vegan approved.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Velo Orange","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53300490993977,"sku":null,"price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0731\/9286\/6105\/files\/stuff_1_4_1800x1800_98ebbd6b-9a90-48d3-8106-9b37e15cc18f.webp?v=1778945290","url":"https:\/\/midwestcyclerykc.com\/products\/velo-orange-smooth-touring-saddle","provider":"Midwest Cyclery KC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
