"Do not fall for the Coolgear saddle"

I had one a those on a Windsor track bike; orange and all Campy. On a road ride one day, I got up off the saddle to stretch. When I went to sit back down, I discovered, much to my surprise, that the little allen key bolt that acted like a lock bolt in the nose of the saddle to keep the main saddle body holding bolt from backing off, had fallen OUT! Soooooooo, the main bolt had backed off and the body of the saddle had come off the rails and my neither regions got a lesson in Einsteinian physics: two things CANNOT occupy the same place at the same time. But they sure can try!
