Up for grabs as sadly it doesn't play well with my rear end; which requires more layback than the saddle is able to provide to my less-than-standard-shaped frame - otherwise provides a very smooth, comfy ride.

I'd love to keep it as I love the provenance and classic aesthetic; however realistically I'm unlikely to use it for the above reasons.

Generally in reasonable used condition; abrasion / compression damage to the sides (worst side shown) and upper rear edge. Missing paint and light corrosion on the saddle rails (note these have wax on that will easily come off), light surface corrosion on rivets. One front rivet slightly pished, signs of cracking of leather in this area (all pictured).

I'm after £40 collected from North Oxfordshire please; happy to post at buyer's cost - probably around £5 first class but I'll have to check.

First refusal given to @newfhouse should they still be bothered after showing interest some time ago ;)

Cool - ta for responding; I thought this would be the case but didn't want to deny you the opportunity since you'd expressed interest in the past ;)

Nice

I've mentioned it to a buddy for his new carbon bike - awaiting response!🤣🤣🤣
We did have one cycle club member who rode a carbon bike with a Brooks B17 .
His response was always “ it’s my bike and my backside “ . He did use another word instead of backside .
