Brooks B17 Narrow / Carved Saddle - Black
The B17 is Brooks flagship model, ideal for long distance sports touring, trekking and ATB use
This is the narrow version - for those used to a more sporty saddle - 155mm wide (compared to 170mm on the standard B17 and 147 on the standard Brompton saddle)
It is also carved - meaning it has a section of the top of the saddle carved out to provide some relief when riding. The appeared on some Brooks saddles as early as the 1890's
The original B17 has been on the market for over 100 years, being featured in as early as the 1898 catalogue.
The saddle comes with three different colour threads to allow you to customise the look of your saddle.
More recently, a Bike Radar review said:
"If weight isn't an issue but comfort for many miles is, you have to try a B17" - maybe if the width was the issue - this can help
