Does anyone remember the once common Fuji "Belt" saddle? I rode one for
about a year on a Fuji Royale "12 Speed" before I decided that leather
style was less important than rearside comfort.

For some reason -- IIRC it was shaped like a B 17 -- the "Belt" didn't
chafe and poke as much as the B 17s or Champion Flyer, and I recall that it
did not require the fiddly attention to tilt -- I think I tilted it
slightly nose up as with all my saddles -- but it was about as giving as a
concrete park bench. But very sturdy (and stiff!) leather. The single
Ideale I used (hot-rodded last chromo-main-tube-model Specialized
Crossroads Cruz) was much the same: not as tilt-fussy but like a wooden
bench, and also too wide as was the B 17.

Query: Who else likes the original-issue Flite?
