Berk: Thanks for sorting the saddles out. Lipa is on my list for next saddle :)

@Mjolnir2k "impressive", I got an old Lupina with round 7mm rails and which is my most used saddle the last 4 years and still in great condition.

Thanks, yes we'll keep the Dila 140.

In general it is no problem to produce also a saddle that isn't in production anymore, might only take some time (around 2 weeks)

Owner of Lupina 150 padded, best I had by far. Really happy to see shorter modern looking versions, looking forward to try one in the future.

I’d be interested in a short Lupina. The Lipa I got wasn’t fitting me correctly.

Wish someone like Berk could/would make a long, flat saddle similar to the old Selle Italia Pro Link or maybe just a wider version based on the profile of the Fizik Tundra M1.

+1 on a flat saddle!
It seems that there are no lightweight saddle manufacturer who offer a similar shape to an Antares for example..
