Crimeny its a bike saddle its made of leather and steel
If you want to loosen the bolt some go ahead and see if it helps
Its not a nuclear warhead
It wont blow up and the sun will still come up in the east tomorow
I dont know where some people get the idea you have to treat brooks saddles like its a newborn baby
or a piece of Ming Dynasty china
The bolts on my 2 saddles have over an inch of adjustment
I have both loosened and tightened my saddles alot to see what difference it makes and they are both fine after my experiments
My 2 saddles may not last 40 years like some people on here brag about theres
but thats fine because Im not gonna last that long either
If a person loosens the nut a half or a whole turn and the saddle sags to much big deal
just tighten it 3/4 to 1'1/2 turns and it will be back to where it was
and it will still have at least another 39 1/2 years worth of adjustment left
Nomex suit on as I wait for the flames from the Brooks purists
