Brooks

Sooo....after riding a bit more with the Brooks saddle (look to July 10th post) I've come to the conclusion that it's not the most suitable saddle for me. It doesn't fit on my seat post right and can't be adjusted far enough back. I don't want to get a new seat post so I'm going back to the saddle I was using before.

It was worth the try though for sure, and it was a good try.

But for now, this vintage Brooks saddle will live on a shelf where it can be marveled by myself and any other enthusiast that may spot it.

New (old) BROOKS saddle

So I got the saddle set up on my bicycle. I wasn't sure it was gonna work out since it had a slightly different fit, but I managed to fasten it down fine.

It feels super good. It rides super smooth. Though it's quite worn, I can still feel the quality and the difference from the saddle I had been using. It's real nice and it was definitely a great buy!

BROOKS Vintage Champion Standard B. 15

My girlfriend and I were downtown today, and we stopped by our local flea market. I had never been before and I guess it was my lucky day. I found this Brooks saddle with a $25 price tag on it. The merchant brought it down to $12. I bought it after some thought. I realized it was too good of a deal to pass up and I was excited.

It looks great to me and it's very broken in, which I don't mind the slightest bit. I'm excited to try it out.

We also found some awesome other stuff - a cow skull, and a pair of deer antlers, all for ridiculously low prices.
