Brooks Saddle in Montreal?
I'm looking into buying a Brooks saddle and would prefer buying it from a local bike shop instead of ordering it online.
Anybody know of a store in the greater Montreal (or Sherbrooke) area which carries them?
Thanks

Salut JP,
Ask at velocia.ca (Quebec cycling forum). Someone saw them in Montreal but I don't remember where (on Rachel street?). I bought mine at wallbike.com.

Found the message here. I'll call them up tomorrow (hopefully not closed on labour day) and share my findings.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Ok,
I got by B-17 standard (black) at ABC on Avenue du Parc. They had it in stock. 89.95$
Apparently Cicycletterie JR (the one on rachel) usually has them in stock as well.
Almost all the shops I called told me that they could order it and have it within a few days.
Now All I have to do is put it on my bike and try it out!

I was in Mcwhinnie's last week and they have several Brooks in the display case, a Pro, a B-17, and one of those heavy sprung models. The B-17 is $85, almost bought it at that price but i've already have a Pro.

It's probably too late, but Revolution Montreal (1757 Amherst) carries Brooks saddles.
