agree wholeheartedly Tom. I have a steeled railed version which comes with brass or copper colored rails and rivets. for me its the best looking saddle on a classic bike currently available and my buns like its shape as well. If you wanna red one e-richie is the man to talk to - he dont peddle Henry Ford colors.
oh .... 280mm long - 150mm wide for them saddles.
ciao, ben kamen NYC
