I've broken the left side rail on my last two San Marco Aspide saddles.
The most recent saddle lasted almost two years (10,000 miles). I’m not sure how long the previous one lasted.
FWIW, I’m about 185 lbs. and I do about 2000 feet of climbing every day.
I’m using a Bontrager seat post. They have decent looking clamps:

The rails always crack in the middle of where they’re clamped. If they were cracking at the edge then I’d say that the clamp was biting into the rail.
Am I doing something wrong with the way that I’m clamping these saddles?
