Brooks Select Saddles
June 4th, 2011 by Bill | Filed under Brooks, saddles.
Brooks’ new line of Select saddles has been slow to arrive at the in the U.S.
The North American distributor got a few of the B.15 Swallow Select models and we grabbed a couple of them.
The Select line is made of thicker, organic leather with a natural finish. We measured the leather on one of our Swallows to be 5.6mm. (Brooks leather is usually 4-5mm thick, regardless of model.) These saddles are made with the high-mileage rider in mind.
The Select line includes the B.17 and B.17S, the B.67 and B.67S, and the Champion Flyer and Champion Flyer S, along with this Swallow. Brooks shipments from England have been a little thin lately but we hope that more Select models will arrive soon. They are nice saddles.
