Default Robbie's Saddle

Folks,

did anyone see the piece (Cycling Central?, TDU preview?) where Robbie McEwan showed off his bike? I'm curious about the saddle he uses. It looked a bit like a Brooks which had been painted white. Had very distinctive brass/copper rivets showing around the rear.

Just curious because the brooks style are very heavy compared to the modern race saddles.

cheers
