The leather seemed to be a bit heavier than what I have on my B-17s, and OMG, are they gorgeous.

I was wondering if anybody here has one, and what their posterior might have to say about it.....
I'm going to try one sooner or later. I find my Brook saddles very comfortable and my Selle Anatomica saddles about 30% more comfy than a Brooks, but the Brooks looks nicer. The GB has the potential to be more comfy than the Brooks and as good looking. Could be a winner...
