Duration Product Used:
More than 3 years
Strengths:
Great comfort, especially when broken in.
Weaknesses:
Slightly heavier than "standard" plastice saddles. Definitely heavier than the latest silly light breed. Definitely more of a racer saddle than the B-17.
Bike Setup:
Full on touring bike from Independant Fabrications. Great bike! Never thought I'd own a tourer, but once I rode it I haven't looked back.
Bottom Line:
Typicall of all Brooks saddles, this is a love em' or hate em' item. I loved this saddle so much more than any plastic unit. Only mistake I made was using too much Proofide. It now has too much support in the wrong ares. Ouch. My own fault too. Don't use too much! Use it sparingly. The saddle will wonderfull and get better with age.
$ 115.00
