brooks b17 standard s brown

The B17 bicycle saddle has been sold by Brooks for over a hundred years and is the longest running product that they still sell today. Derived from John Boultbee Brooks desire for a more comfortable saddle after trying a bike for the first time in 1878, Brooks have delivered one of the most comfortable saddles ever. Perfect for anyone who intends on spending a lot of time on their bike the B17 is wide enough to provide great support and comfort, but also narrow enough at the front to make sure it doesn't impede your pedalling efforts, meaning efficiency isn't sacrificed for comfort, making it ideal for touring or trekking. Stainless steel rails provide all the necessary stiffness possible. The B17 has been lovingly hand crafted from the finest English leather in Smethwick Birmingham for over a century, even using many of the traditional tools and machinery that would have originally been used back then. Not just steeped in history and sumptuously pleasant to ride, it's also a thing of beauty. The use of older methods and tools means it has a pleasingly nostalgic aesthetic, a perfect compliment to the image of any fine frame or rider.
