Brooks...
I just got myself a brooks saddle from Nashbar. The package came just with the saddle. Should'nt there be a maintenence package with it? i.e. proofhide and adjustment wrench etc? Looks like I should call Nashbar first thing tomorrow. I just wanted to make sure here first before calling.
thanks...
thanks...

I got mine from Wallingford Bicycle and I had to order the care kit extra. I don't think they automatically come with the saddle unless Nashbar had some kind of package deal.

I agree. I have had 4 or 5 Brooks saddles, and bought the wrench with the first one. I have never found it necessary to use it.
