I own three Brooks professional bought in the 70's and maybe 1981. They are all to my liking and I need another this year to build another bike. I took a look around the net today and my eyes are almost bleeding from the ill and uninformed bo**ox I have found, mainly Brooks vs Selle Italia fanboy wars and various misinformation on care and most importantly the question of hide quality.
I can't walk into a shop and look one over, I live in the country, there is one bike shop in a 40km radius, they don't stock Brooks.
So for anyone who has actually owned Brooks saddles over many decades and recently added to their stable, how do the current offerings stack up hide quality wise?
