I have quite a few bicycles, and a few have classic British made Brooks leather saddles, made right here in the UK in England since 1866, one of the few remaining British products.
I own an old 1950`s B66, 2 1960`s Professionals, and 4 B17s that will probably all out live myself...
Saddles for life for a daily cyclist, and something still made from a classic engineering past of out country that the everyday man can still afford. Some things work so why change them?...
Pt 1
Pt 2
All of these leather saddles are great for cycling-except in extreme wet weather conditions, and as i found also for coastal cycling with salt water saturation being leather, until now...
I just received one of these from Wiggle after seeing one on friend Mikes Pugsley at Forth Fat last weekend-a waterproof Brooks saddle!, not made in the UK this new model but still hand made with fine detail...
Made in Italy this saddle maybe a move with the times for Brooks...
Just the job for my Purple Pugsley...
Loads of stuff available by Brooks along with saddles...
More soon...
