Very sweet saddle and very comfortable to. CCM did things right as most of the saddles they used were very comfortable and practical. I think CCM used Dunlop Saddles from the late 30`s to the late 50`s depending on the style and price range.

Great to see this. My aunt's 1940 somethng bike has a rubber Dunlop saddle that has survived pretty well. I had never seen one like it before and when I described it to other people they shook their heads with disbelief that someone would make a saddle out of rubber.

I think most of them did not survive which makes it great when you find one that did. Specially if your looking for one.
I would gladly trade the rubber seat that came on my 37 CCM delivery bike for a long spring in good shape...
