When I saw San Marco's booth at Interbike, I was stoked beyond anything else. It seems that they are reissuing the Concor. My two favorite saddles of all time are the Selle Italia Turbo and the San Marco Concor. Both saddles fit my big, yet tender rear just right and I have put several through hell.
Because of Kyle's post on Tracko today, I meandered over to the San Marco site to find that you can now buy one of the new / reissued Concors for € 90.00
Keep in mind these saddles were the "shit" when they were in production and being the "shit" means that the price is premium. I won't ride one on my beater / trick bike, because I have a cheap knock-off for that [which is holding up great by the way], but I will buy one for my Merckx.

just the San Marco Italian page. It takes a bit longer to load on my machine.

Max,
thanks a lot! After the Holiday here I'll place an order. I also want to grab another Grunge saddle for a new bike coming shortly.
I'll be in touch!
