This curious turbo has a faded green smooth leather cover.  In spots, it looks forest green.  In others, its more turquoise.  In others, the color has been faded/worn off.  

The Selle Italia Turbo is one of the most loved saddles of all time, up there with the Brooks B17 and San Marco Concor.  They’re gorgeously constructed with a durable leather cover, and stand the test of time.  

Condition:

This saddle has supple leather and padding, but mixed condition surface.  There isn’t much of any real damage, but a lot of scratching, fading, and dye rub.  The rear end has most of it’s color worn off in spots, and a couple spots that are starting to split, but no real scuffs.  This one looks odd, but has lots of miles left in it.

Details:

  • 1985 dated original production
  • Smooth green leather
