I once bought a saddle at Performance and they told me I could install and
try it on my bike at home, then return it if it didn't work. They told me
to wrap the rails in tape so they didn't get scratched up, and that the
saddle had to come back looking new. It worked for me so I never took
advantage of their return offer.
