Back on topic, forum regulars know I am a big fan of Brooks, although I admit they are heavy and weather-sensitive.
Yes unfortunately the cat featured used up his 9 lives dealing with the traffic on the street here, nearly a year ago. When it has been a year, I will retire the photo.
The idiot car drivers around here that figure a stop sign means stop, then accelerate to 95km/h in the 120m to the next stop sign, before slamming on the brakes again.
As for the saddles, I would rather have a heavy saddle that is comfortable, then a light weight saddle that isn't, besides, the engine can lose the weight of the rest of the bike in my case, so a 500g saddle versus a 200g saddle isn't really an issue. Unfortunately I can't afford a Brooks right now....
