  • / bikemanforu Brooks saddles and bicycle bags scream class and that's no overstatement at 2013 Interbike. "Notice how the saddle comes with a wrench," says BikemanforU. "As the saddle stretches out, you're going to need to get to that nut right underneath here. Again, they're trying to be nice. That's cool. They've got the holey saddles, as well. It's nice, hanh? It is nice. What a great gift item for somebody into cycling." More Interbike 2013 coverage bit.ly/19QBTbn Visit BikemanforU DIY Channel for great videos from UA-cam's how-to guru of bike repair.

    The B17 Imperial is the best with the cut-out to relive perineal pressure and Brooks came out with it in 1890 but I wished it had the wide hand tapped copper rivets. Gel saddles are garbage after a year or two. I rode it down the west coast and some day I'll ride it to Boston too see you Bikeman.

    Brooks is to cycling, what Rolex is to watches.

    It boggles my mind how these are said to be some of the best bike seats around. I'm too scared to actually try one because of how hard they seem to be initially but I guess there's a reason they're so popular.

    Depends on what you ride Guitarfool. Most riders who ride strenuously, ie. BMX, MTB, Triathlon, Road etc...find that a firm to even hard saddle best suites them. The leather of a Brooks will literally mold itself to fit YOU and YOUR BUTT. As Bikeman says, it is a personal thing, the saddle goes with the rider. The leather gives just enough so it does not feel like you are sitting on a rock yet it is firm and supports you. It is slippery enough it doesn't chafe and it can breathe.

    Those saddles look solid and uncomfortable

    Yeah they're classy but so hard! Can one make them softer somehow? I mean Im only 50 kg and its like sitting on a plank. Can the spiral springs somehow get adjusted for not so heavy people?

    Brooks saddles are like a liquor license in New York... Goes with the person not the bike.
