I've had a Brooks saddle for some years now and swapped it across a number of bikes. I tried a few versions of it and the one I settled on is the Brooks Flyer - it has springs at the back which adds some suspension - especially useful on a Brompton.
Pick it up from the frame where the Brompton sticker is. That’s what I did when I had a B17 Flyer Select. I now run a Specialized BG 143 saddle. As the Brooks started to split under my left sit bone and began to crack after 9 yrs, despite following the Proofhide care regime to the letter.
Lovely looking saddle that!

just give it time and you will get your reward 😉, never seen this saddle before now so might give it a go 🙂

With leather you kind of have to adapt your care pattern to the weather conditions you put it through.
