Thanks for the link to that thread - v interesting. A shame the open Nidd didn't work out for you in the end. I hadn't heard of the Berthoud - I'll have a look online for those.

Here they are https://www.spacycles.co.uk/m18b0s204p0 ... es-Leather. The Marie Blanque is the shorter version of the Aravis / Aspin but not stocked in an open version although it does exist https://berthoudcycles.fr/en/563-leathe ... tural.html and I expect that Spa can order one. It's a big investment and best deferred until you are sure that it's the right width for you and less expensive saddles don't work.

Thanks. Definitely an 'investment' item alright...one for further down the line if at all. They look great, though.
