I acquired an aged street bike in questionable condition early this summer and I absolutely love it! It's green, it's made of steel, it's got two wheels and all the other bicycle stuff. Only thing left to complain was this torture device, which once was used as a saddle - the saddle from hell!
When products are so bad that it literally hurts, I start thinking "can't get much worse" and try to figure out a way to 3d print an alternative. Which is what I did; and after a few iterations (see picture gallery - black one is original) I've obtained a surprisingly comfy and robust saddle which at least feels much better that the steel-framed real thing.
I tested the final version a few months this year just by riding around in the city and I think it's about time to release the files. Riding it can be a bit unsettling first, specifically when you have some experience with the typical toughness of 3d printed parts, but yet I didn't experience anything breaking, not even with the earliest
