Review by lebvendorsXLNT touring saddle at an agreeable priceby lebvendorsCycling EnthusiastMidwest0 of 1 customers found this review helpful.I ride a hybrid bicycle 400 miles per month on city streets and bicycle trails. The Brooks B17 provides an excellent balance of comfort, weight and rigidity for my style of riding, and requires - in my case - no break-in period. I enthusiastically recommend the Brooks B17 saddle to other riders.

Review by AnonymousBeautiful and Well Madeby AnonymousCasual CyclistOklahoma0 of 1 customers found this review helpful.I ordered the honey color, which in the photograph looks a little orange, so I'm happy to announce that it is a beautiful medium brown that matches the Brooks handle bar tape very well. It's winter so I can't speak to it's much comfort because its been to cold to get out too often. But I'm confident that it will be perfect come biking season!

Review by AnonymousBest saddle I�ve owned!by AnonymousStillwater, NYGreat saddle for daily commuting and touring. I�ve spent 8 hrs a day on this saddle for a week long touring trip and it was much more comfortable than I hoped for. Takes some time to break in, but a great investment!

Review by LProseMy Thighs are in Loveby LProseDaily CommuterMinneapolisSo far I am loving this saddle, I'm only 20 miles it but have never had such a comfortable right. I especially love how much lower than the seat go the side edges so that my legs glide against it while pumping for the next hill. TRUE FAN OVER HERE!

Review by AnonymousLove my new Brooks Saddle!by AnonymousDaily CommuterSan Francisco, CA0 of 1 customers found this review helpful.This thing is super sturdy and perfect for my commute. I like harder saddles, so this is perfect for me. I'm also really into leather patinas, so I ended up choosing the Honey color (even thought it's not the best match for my bike color scheme). Super stoked to see how it wears in and softens up to fit my sit bones. )

Review by Vicki SchwarzenbachI'm glad I got this saddle.by Vicki SchwarzenbachTampa FloridaThere was no break in time needed. It's been comfortable from mile one! And mostly I expect it to last a lot longer than my old ones that used to only give me a few thousand miles.

Review by lebvendorsXLNT touring saddleby lebvendorsMidwestI ride 270 miles per month on city streets and bike trails. The Brooks B17 provides an ideal combination of comfort, weight, and durability for the kind of low-to-moderate speed bicycle riding I do. Westernbikeworks price is agreeable, too.

Review by AnonymousAs comfortable as custom made.by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastPhiladelphia and Cape MayI love the style of the seat and the use of natural material. The workmanship is a lost art form and it gives real class to my 1970 Raleigh Pro and my new Tokyobike. Add Brooks hand grips for some real class
