Win a custom Charge saddle worth £69.99!

Design your perfect perch and you could be one of three lucky winners that has it made for free...

If you think your steed could do with a flash matching saddle – and don't we all – then it's worth taking a look at the Charge custom saddle builder. You can get one of Charge's highly regarded Spoon saddles with every part customised to your colour choice. And we've got three to give away to three lucky road.cc readers!

All you have to do is head over to the custom saddle builder and get your perch looking just so, then snap a screen grab of it and post it in a comment below. We'll pick the three we like the best, and those designs will be made up with Cromoly rails and sent out to our lucky winners. What could be easier? You can spec Ti rails if you think it makes your Spoon look better. You won't get 'em, though.

You've got until next Friday, 15 March (at about tiffin time) to submit your design. We'll use a combination of bias and guesswork to pick our top three; it's all a bit subjective really, but we'll try and justify our artistic choices, possibly using such terms as 'bombast' and 'weltanschauung'. Good luck!

Windows keyboards have a PrtScn key (print screen) usually next to F12. Press that and it captures what's on your monitor and copies it to the clipboard. Open an image editing program, create a blank image the same size as your display and paste. You now have a editable image of your screen.

Can't figure out how the screen grab thingy works!

My saddle would pay homeage to Team Sky with black Cover & base, Blue Bumpers & stitching finished with yellow logo.

Here is the ubiquitous Sky saddle, as all the best colours are gone already. -edit: Honest I was already doing a Sky saddle in photoshop before Chris's comment above. fn + prt sc, function and print screen to capture image then paste it into something and save.
