I have taken delivery (30 mins ago ) of the Spa Cycles version of the Brooks saddle. Seems pretty much the same but a whole lot cheaper ...
I'm impressed thus far - comes in a nice wee bag, with care instructions, Alan key and spanner (for the locknut) and a non-shiny (= less slippery ?) surface. Ordered at 1815 on Wed, delivered Friday 0830.
Looking forward to giving it a ride.
Have you got/ordered some Proofide too ? Cheapest at Spa ... ... free delivery with the saddle ...I've ordered this one

being of the sporty variety, hoping it's as good as it looks.
PS. Couldn't justify the price of a Brookes Swift.

There are racing models such as the Swift or Swallow, and touring models like the B17 wide and some with springs (off-road or tandem stoker). In between are the Pro and Colt. Most are available with titanium rails. For most of us who spend a long time on the bike, they're still the most comfortable.
