Summary:
After my great old Flite original fell apart, I spent many years trying to find decent substitution. I tried several Selle Italias and other producers but neither felt quite like Flite. Eventually I ended up with Specialized Toupe Gel and Ritchey WCS. The price was the factor I chose Ritchey and it turned out I had a winner. I was and still am delighted with this piece. It was actually the seat I was looking for for years. The feel is identical to old Flite's. No more pain and numbness between my legs. Highest recommendations. I plan to buy another one to keep it as spare if becomes production obsolete in the future.

Strengths:
- Comfortable and still racing minimalist cut shape.
- Lightweight
- Quality construction
- Great looks

Weaknesses:
- None so far.
