Prologo Baum Ristretto
Declan's Baum Ristretto has seen a couple of paint schemes inspired by the design sensibilities of Sir Paul Smith. Some might say it's a bit overboard but we certainly had a lot of fun with both the saddle and the two piece saddle bag. The bar tape in white leather has perforation colours to match the saddle. The saddle in the last photo is after a few years riding the previous iteration of the Ristretto.

Power Full Cover
Selle Italia SLR C-59 Black on Black
Minimal styling on Ryan's saddle custom covering. We added 3mm of EVA padding to the un-padded base and detailed with black perforations in the seat area following the contour of the central cut-out. Gusset panels at both ends of the cut-out and underneath at the centre back help to achieve a smooth finish with as little wrinkling as possible. With the padding and leather the saddle weighed in at approximately 97g.
