At last we have an affordable, classic style saddle perfect for road bikes. This is basically a copy by Velo of the Selle San Marco Regal saddle. The tan leather version is found as OEM equipment on the 2010 Colnago Super off the peg fixed wheel bike.
The synthetic (grained 'leather' style) model is very practical for everyday UK use. Chromed steel rails with matching chrome rivets (see note below) and no logos. Black only at present. Superb value and highly recommended.
We now have these available in leather too - exactly the same design and rivets but with a smoother very fine grained genuine leather cover.
Note: latest stock of these (both synthetic and leather) have more attractive 'brassed' type rivets rather than shiny chrome in pics.
Superb value micro adjust head alloy seatpost - perfect for budget builds on a steel frame. Attractive polished finish and weight of just 280g (300mm).
Fully adjustable 'Ritchey' pattern head. Size is 27.2mm to fit most older steel frames. Good usable length of 300mm with max extension approx 230mm (9"). Now available in longer 400mm (15.5") too.
Now available in black in 300mm length only (pics coming soon).
This is ideal for those assembling a bike with a more modern build rather than the classic 80's style posts as below and a good match for the BBB freeride stem. These are superb value, lightweight (300mm under 260g) and very well made posts in double-butted 6066-T6 aluminium and available in highly polished or black anodized finish (note: polished now discontinued).
Fully adjustable twin bolt head with nicely machined bolts. Size is 27.2mm to fit most older steel frames as well as an upgrade to modern off the peg steel (and some alu) framed bikes (road or MTB). Ideal for modern (sloping top tube) road frames requiring more post extension - long length of 300mm, max extension approx 210mm (8"). Also available in extra long 400mm in black for MTB's.
Another NOS special from VeloSolo. We have a number of these classic Italian made posts available with a design owing more than a nod to Campagnolo. Forged in polished aluminium with fluted section to top. Micro adjust cradle. Size is 27.2mm to fit most steel road/track frames. Shortish length for 'traditional' sized frames at 200mm, max extension approx 135mm. Made in Italy and complete with original packaging.
And one more NOS seatpost in 27.2mm. A real find these, complete with original (sun-faded) boxes. Fluted section to top with micro adjust cradle. Polished aluminium finish. As above a shortish length suitable for 'traditional' sized frames at 200mm, max extension approx 140mm. Made in Japan.

Sheet measures over 17cm across and contains nine different decals. Various VeloSolo designs together with multi-lingual allegiances to the joys of one gear be it fixed or regular singlespeed - 'Derailleur? No Thanks' ('Nein Danke', 'Non Merci' etc). Decals are colour fast, high quality, long-lasting and printed on extruded vinyl suitable for outdoor applications - ie they won't fall off your bike when it rains...
Note: for easy removal of stickers from sheet, remove waste backing area first (area with 'VeloSolo Bikes 2009') at the bottom of the sheet.
We have had a number of these made for re-painted frames. Same colour fast, high quality, long-lasting vinyl as our sticker sheets but these have an additional protective clear laminate layer too. Designed for the typical size downtube of a steel frame (approximately 1" to 1 3/8" diameter).
Approximate size is 8" x 4". To fit to frame first wrap around tube without removing backing and mark or measure any excess to be removed (or use a piece of paper as a template). Cut equal amount from each long side so decal joins at underneath of downtube with a minimal gap. De-grease and dry tube thouroughly before application.
As usual with VS kit these are very nicely machined here in the UK. Fits any standard 1 1/8" A-head headset (ie modern clamp on stem/non-quill). Available with laser engraved VeloSolo logo in polished or black anodized finish. Alternatively show your agreement for the wise words of Monsieur Henri Desgrange ('...better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailleur...') by declaring: 'Derailleur? No Thanks', 'Nein Danke' or 'Non Merci' in black anodized. Weight 10g.
