The Brooks B17 Carved Saddle is designed for riders seeking a premium saddle with pressure relief, ideal for trekking, touring, commuting, gravel, and road cycling. It features a “registered cutting” pressure relief channel, a design tested since the 1890s. The saddle includes laced flaps for added tension and is handcrafted in England using high-quality vegetable-tanned leather. This leather not only provides strength and beauty but also uniquely molds to each rider over time. The leather top is suspended over the saddle rail, creating a hammock-like seat for personalized comfort. Brooks offers an extended 10-year guarantee, reflecting their confidence in the quality and craftsmanship honed over 150 years.
