The B17 is Brook's flagship model, ideal for long distance sportive touring, trekking and atb use. It has been on the market for over 100 years, being featured in as early as the 1898 catalogue .
I am selling 2 saddles modified very carefully by me. Both saddles are the regular Brooks Honey B17. First I cut the sides with caution with my Dremel tool. Afterward, I took a fine sand paper and sanded down the sides so the do not rub and buffed with a cloth putting the Brooks famous Proofide leather treatment. The entire process as demised by a famous fixed gear roadie on this forum took about 3 1/2 hours for each saddle. They look like great and ride well and weigh just a bit less then the regular saddle.
I rode both saddles for at least 300 miles each. Now they were just sitting in my garage. See the pics below. Price is $75 delivered in US. Will accept Paypal and a local pickup with cash.
