Charge Saddle BuilderWin a custom Charge saddle worth £69.99!
If you think your steed could do with a flash matching saddle – and don't we all – then it's worth taking a look at the Charge custom saddle builder. You can get one of Charge's highly regarded Spoon saddles with every part customised to your colour choice. And we've got three to give away to three lucky road.cc readers!
All you have to do is head over to the custom saddle builder and get your perch looking just so, then snap a screen grab of it and post it in a comment below. We'll pick the three we like the best, and those designs will be made up with Cromoly rails and sent out to our lucky winners. What could be easier? You can spec Ti rails if you think it makes your Spoon look better. You won't get 'em, though.
You've got until next Friday, 15 March (at about tiffin time) to submit your design. We'll use a combination of bias and guesswork to pick our top three; it's all a bit subjective really, but we'll try and justify our artistic choices, possibly using such terms as 'bombast' and 'weltanschauung'. Good luck!
Dave is a founding father of road.cc, having previously worked on Cycling Plus and What Mountain Bike magazines back in the day. He also writes about e-bikes for our sister publication ebiketips. He's won three mountain bike bog snorkelling World Championships, and races at the back of the third cats.

Usual ugly Pinarello, bumps and curves where they aren't needed. And, according to Mapdec, not well built.

Less is more (and it'll match both my bikes)

Subtle, maybe, but designed to match my black Charge Juicer, with Brooks brown leather bartape and the yellow accents on my Conti Ultra Sport tyres. All as per The Rules, of course.

To match my beautiful Scott Contessa - much in need of a new saddle after a pitbull in Trinidad and Tobago chewed the end of my current saddle off just a month after I'd bought the bike
(I did still ride around the whole island on it, and to this day it is still 'fixed' with black electrical tape ! )

It's Manchester Wheelers 130th Anniversary this year ( my club ) so it's a simple red, white and blue to match the club kit... #classic

As you can see - I NEED to win!
Bought myself a new carbon frame and I can't afford anything to put on it

Looks like the judging of this Schwag comp is causing some difficulties, or was I too immersed in 'weltanschauung' to notice the announcement?
In it to win it??
