Bargain! You can always return it if it doesn't fit. Check the width and compare with your current saddle if you're not sure

Saddles are always a personal choice but this one got a very positive review in Cycling Plus Issue 316 Summer 2016. Also very positive reviews on web sites and good user reviews. I was planning to buy one at £30. I've actually ordered two at £11.25 each now because I have a couple of bikes that would benefit from a more comfortable saddle.
I rode 90 miles on one of these saddles yesterday, highly recommended.

It's 30g heavier than advertised. I'm not impressed. That's just silly to lie about something like that.
Will test it for comfort tomorrow.

No reason for sarcasm. There is no excuse for Wiggle knowingly stating incorrect weight of this product. Or is there?
Whilst I'm at it. The saddle is probably worth the sale price. But its neither light nor comfortable. I appreciate comfort is a subjective measure. The frame on this saddle has hardly any flex. The padding is minimal. So there's little cushioning. Heavier riders may find this offers good support.
But mine is going back for refund.
Anyway. Thanks for posting. I was meaning to try this saddle out for a while.

It wasn't sarcasm I was asking other people who had bought it noticed the weight problem .. no need for the aggression either

There's no agression in my post. If you feel otherwise please point out where.
As for the weight it's a fact, not a problem. And the use of "oh dear" as if this fact was somehow insignificant? Hence my suspicion of sarcasm.
I'd also be interested to hear from other buyers if their saddles weigh as much as the one I got. It's hard to imagine a production variance amounting to more than 10% increase in weight.
