B17 Saddle Review Reviewed By:James Anderson Reviewed On: April 16, 2004 Product Page:Brooks Saddles Price: $199.95
The Ride
I bolted the saddle to my Sette USA seatpost and decided to take it for a ride. At first the saddle was a little hard since I was accustomed to using some of the other saddles that have foam in it. I rode locally for 24 miles and realized the saddle was already breaking in. I believe I could really come to like the saddle with a few months use. It didn’t rain the day I rode so I didn’t get the chance to see what the leather would do and I really did not want too. I intend to keep the saddle on one of our bikes for some extended use in the next few months.
Conclusion
The Brooks B17 Titanium bike saddle is really a hand made master piece which is a piece of art. I really wish Brooks would stamp the person name inside the saddles so it would be more personable for the purchaser. If you are looking for a great hand made saddle or one to hang on your wall you may want to try the Brooks B17 saddle. Cycling Reviews would like to thank Brooks Saddles for allowing us the opportunity to review such a great saddle.
