Sports reviews of Brooks B17 Standard ATB/Trekking Bicycle Saddle
Customer Review: get this saddle and you will never look back
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
After being away for about 8 years, don't ask me why, I decided to get back into cycling again, and bought a Trek 520, mostly for commuting, but plan to do some longer trips later. The saddle that came with the bike was so hard I hurt for a week after using it a few days, and stopped riding it. I looked into other saddles, found Brooks, and decided on the aged since I didn't want to ride a marathon to break it in. I have just installed it and I have only ridden a dozen miles on this saddle so far, and decided to write this now. There is no break in period, it feels great right from the start. I had to actually make myself think about the saddle I was sitting on, it was so comfortable from the get-go, that I almost forgot about it, which was good, as it allowed me to enjoy my ride more. This is one great all leather saddle, and I know I am going to enjoy it for many years to come. If and when I get another bike, I will order a Brooks before I even ride it.
The saddle comes with some leather string tied into the underside, like a shoelace, which as time goes on, you tighten it up a bit, plus a wrench to tighten the rear linear adjustment. You'll know when you get yours, but this adjustment needs very little at a time, if at all?
I bought the Proofride saddle dressing, or wax as I call it. You put it on the underside of the saddle and leave it, put a small amount on the sides and polish it off, but put none on the top. I do not know if this works, but even the bike shop said it was a good idea, so I will use it. Expensive for a small tin, but probably worth it.
One other thing, the saddle comes with a cover for when it rains, I didn't know this so it was a nice surprise as I wanted to get one. Glad I didn't order it ahead of time.
