My new Brooks! Before and After



The dedicated Touring Cyclist will either be a confirmed devotee of Brooks saddles or will have nothing to do with them! I love them but....they take 500 miles or 300km to break in! Once broken in they match your nether region perfectly and you can sit comfortably on them for six hours a day without suffering any of the many saddle pains. I bought a new one recently in Thame, U.K., and it is now broken in and I love it. Click on the heading above to see the "Brooks" web site.

The first image is how it looks now. The second is before it suffered the pounding of nearly a 1000km! As they say here in the States: ...it now fits my tukus like a glove!
