A bicycle saddle is important. Different cyclists prioritise different features. Many prefer a wider saddle for an upright, relaxed riding position. Others always prefer a narrower saddle. The cyclist’s weight and the width of their hips also affect which type of saddle feels comfortable.
Selle Montegrappa Saddles:
Made in Italy, Selle Montegrappa’s saddles are affordable, comfortable, stylish, and do not disappoint. They are comfortable from the first pedal stroke and easier to maintain. If the bicycle is to be used in all weathers, and functionality is slightly more important than appearance, the Selle Montegrappa Future and Canard are excellent choices.
Brooks England Saddles:
Brooks England has been handcrafting saddles for over 100 years and they are considered the Rolls-Royce of saddles. Initially, the saddle might feel a bit hard, but the leather is smooth and glossy, so the risk of chafing is minimal. Brooks saddles are divinely comfortable once they are broken in. The saddle requires some care in the form of greasing and is not maintenance-free. Ultimately, it is the beauty of Brooks saddles that makes the heart beat a little faster: the shimmering leather and the joy of timeless good design.
Pilen Bicycles Saddle Options:
Pilen bicycles offer four saddle models to choose from, all available in black, brown, and honey. There are two wider saddles: B67 and Future, and two narrower ones: B17 and Canard.

You choose the colour of the frame and fork, the colour of the mudguards, the colour of the rear carrier, and the colour of the chain guard. If you want the same colour for all parts, previously called single colour, you can have that. If you want the frame and fork in one colour, the mudguards in a second colour, the rear carrier in a third colour, and the chain guard in a fourth colour, you can have that too. Black mudguards, a black rear carrier, and a black chain guard are still available at no extra cost. The custom choices for mudguards, rear carriers, and chain guards have an additional cost of 150 SEK per choice, totaling 450 SEK if you want to customize the appearance of all three. You choose – we build.
The Pilen GT comes standard with a rotating chain guard mounted on the front chainring. You can choose to have the more protective chain guard from the Pilen Lyx installed—in either a colour of your choice or in matte polished stainless steel—for an additional 300 SEK. The wire-model rear carrier is never painted. You can opt to remove the rear carrier if, for example, you plan to install a child seat or prefer a more minimalist, sporty look for the bike. You choose – we build.
Please note that the Pilen GTV does not have a bicycle configurator. This is because the Pilen GT is essentially identical to the Pilen GTV, with the difference being that the GTV has 11 gears and hydraulic disc brakes.
The meaning of Pilen’s slogan “You can have it your way” applies to options and paintwork. Read about the colours available for the bikes. As far as is practically, logistically, and cost-effectively possible, we want to offer the creation of unique bikes.
The table further down the page shows which Standard Colours the models are available in with a normal delivery time of 1-2 weeks, i.e. bikes we can build with painted parts we have in stock. It also shows which colours are Plus Colours with longer delivery times (but no additional cost).
The model is available in that Standard Colour with a normal delivery time of 2-4 weeks.
NOTE: We are currently revising our colour selection process. Plus Colour may affect the delivery time to the end customer. Plus Colour does not affect the price to the end customer.
The model cannot be delivered at the moment.

Pilen can also paint one or more bikes in any desired colour – we call this Exclusive Colour – if we receive the name and RAL colour of the paint. This is done, for example, when Pilen produces Company Bikes where the customer wants their own profile colour. Painting in Exclusive Colours incurs an additional cost which is quoted to the customer upon request – after we have checked the availability of the colour with East Coast Industrial Coatings in Västervik, Sweden, and possibly with Axalta. The cost is always quoted and includes a fixed setup cost and a cost per bike. Note: the customer must specify the RAL colour for the Exclusive Colour. An RGB code or web colour code is not sufficient.
The normal colour scheme for Lyx means that the frame and fork are painted in the chosen colour. Chainguard, mudguards, and carrier are painted in Black RAL 9005.
The normal colour scheme for GT and GTV means that the frame and fork are painted in the chosen colour. The mudguards are matte-polished bare stainless steel. The rotating chainguard and wire model carrier are not painted.
The normal colour scheme for EL1 means that the frame, carrier, and fork are painted in the chosen colour. Chainguard, mudguards, and carrier are painted in Black RAL 9005.
