I'd place the Brooks on this list's classified section, but even though I'm a subscribed member to that list, I've never been able to successfully list anything on it. Just ordered a Koobi au Enduro The Brooks is going on E-Bay tomorrow with pics.

Nice to see a post once in a while to balance out all of the Brooks true believers. Many love the Brooks, but it isn't for everyone. It really is just another saddle that you may or may not like.
