Brooks B17S saddle

[ricksavery]

I have a Brooks B17S ladies saddle (bought by mistake - I wanted the men's version!) which has been ridden for about 4 months - not that many miles but it is beautifully soft.
There are slight indentations where I have imprinted my backside on it and slight flaking of the black covering on the rails where it has been attached to the seatpost, but other than that it is in pristine condition
I have not touched the tightening bolt, and include the spanner in case anyone wants to.
£40 including postage
I have a photo if anyone is interested. PM me and I will send it

Sorry, should have mentioned, it is honey colour. Apologies if this seen as bumping, but I had an enquiry, who thought it was black.

Hi there, does it have bag loops as I might use my Carradice green bag with tan straps if I decided to go for it. Still thinking about it as I've bought a couple of saddles lately!

Yse it does have bag loops. I would attach a photo but it asks for the URL where the photo is stored. As it is on my home computer I'm not sure what to put! If you let me have your email I can send a pic if you want

If no-one wants it here, you can often get very good prices on Ebay for Brooks saddles. I have seen nearly new ones go for more than the new price: US riders seem particularly keen on them.

Changed price now to £35 inc postage. Hopefully this will now sell

 

[leila]

is this still available?
i am awfully tempted

So am I, but dithering a little as I'm not sure if I'd find it comfortable.

1) The best way to carry a Carradice, bar none.

2) If you get on with them, they're really comfy and only get better.

3) If you don't get on with them, you'll not lose money selling it on, as other posters have said.

I have a B17N, and B17, they're fantastic, imo.

I like your pictures John the Monkey!

Thank you, now buy the saddle, you'll love it

Just to let everyone know, the saddle is now sold. Had no interest for a while then a burst of several all at once, so it had to be first-come first-served I'm afraid. Sorry to those of you who missed it. Thanks for the interest and hope you find another one soon.

I managed to find one on Ebay. I haven't fitted it yet but we'll see. It looks very nice. It's black.
