Mine came with the proper saddle which, sadly, ripped shortly after.
I've forsaken the car this summer and have been putting a lot of miles on these two.


A Glider Bitsa, year unknown.
It started out as a $20.00 frame.



1962 Robin Hood, also assembled from the parts bin.

As found.
Both are well suited to a cross town commute.
