Fresco Tree Austria Saddle???

[BigJohn]

Yeah the saddle is still for sale. I wanted $175 for it. A guy work with just took it off the truck and said he wanted and never paid me for it so I am about to repo it.

 

[TreeJunkie]

A pic of the saddle for sale? Which of the two is it???

 

[Gopher]

Both look good to me!

Thank you for all of your wonderful searching!

And yes, I took a couple of quarters of German in college, so I did dig out my German/English dictionary and my Spaus und Spaunig Verb book! Give me an hour; I'll have it figured out again!

Say, Tom, I believe I would be interested in that saddle you posted. Could you e-mail me further English info?

Dave, I have a Fresco Saddle X as a demo if you want to try it out for a little while.

Not that it would fit you, since it's not in a girls size.

I am working about 5 miles from Freeworker tommorrow so time permitting, I will stop by and get some photos of Hubert's saddle.

I will also try to find the manufacturer of the Kolibri.

If you have any questions, shoot the guys at Freeworker an email, they are cool with engli$h.

Thanks Gord, i have to have you computer savvy guys to the leg work for me,,,,But anyhow i dropped them an email over there and i hope to hear about some way of getting one of those Kollibri saddles...It has the perfect butterfly improvements..This saddle should be hot.

 

[TreeJunkie]

I just received a reply from freeworker on the cost of this beauty...nearly 400 american plus shipping... Ouch....Awesome saddle but 400,,maybe 300 or 350 but that sounds excessive....How much would the shipping be?And i was wondering about the weight, is it as light as the b'fly?

Have you contacted Greg Good yet?

If not give Charly Potorff a call he sells Greg's wears.

I finally made it by. Huberts new saddle in partnership with Edelrid is really cool. Black, compact. Like the Bfly but lighter and much more user friendly and adjustable.

It is currently NOT in production. It comes stock with a bridge that can be removed or replaced. CE is frowning on saddles with replaceable bridges apparently. I think it is not just that the bridge is replaceable but, like the Dyneema mod, it has a life time that is shorter than the saddle.

The saddle was out in the open for testing and photos in Augsburg in March. My inquiries into photographing it just proked a laughing response so no pics


The Kolibri is €259 and when Huberts is sold, it is €230. The said it would be available in 4-6 weeks but also followed with at this point, I will believe it when it is here.

On friday, Freeworked posted in the "news" section on their site that the TreeMagic Saddle from Edelrid is available.

 

[Nathan Wreyford]

The saddle looks great, don't get the large d ring on the bridge. At first I thouht it was 3 d rings. That I'd want. They do say that you can have 2 d rings on bridge.

Wish I could try it out. Like to hear if any one has used it yet.

I figured out the Duesch version...

Now, this Tree Magic saddle looks like something I would buy.

Price and where to purchase?

It's late, so I probably missed something, but I do need a saddle. Yes, need; not just want (that is what I ask of my wife!) but need!
