My Dawes had one a Lycette from new when I bought it from new in 1956

The sales blurb was if I remember correctly Get Your Pleasures Out Of Dawes.

Yup, had one in 1965 or around then. It was fine.

I had one on a bike a few years back. Very similar to Brooks in construction, in fact I am not sure the metal frame was not identical.

I am not an expert in leather production but I remember that initially it was as uncomfortable as a Brooks. I cannot talk about what it aged like as I got rid of the bike quite quickly.
