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.

Can't figure out how the screen grab thingy works!
My saddle would pay homeage to Team Sky with black Cover & base, Blue Bumpers & stitching finished with yellow logo.
Here is the ubiquitous Sky saddle, as all the best colours are gone already. -edit: Honest I was already doing a Sky saddle in photoshop before Chris's comment above. fn + prt sc, function and print screen to capture image then paste it into something and save.

these dodgy colours should ensure that it clashes with both my Chinook and Blue Pig X.

I can't paste it in here for some reason (probably due to me being slightly special when it comes to using a PC). Erm I think its attached!?

Does my bum look big on this?
This is my effort - similar to others with yellow stitching, however silver base and black leather. Goes with the colour scheme on my Cinelli having giving the bars a fresh yellow wrapping for the summer:

'Pro' White with highlights in the University of Hull club colours would be perfect for me, ta!
