Have to take Care of a Brooks in wet weather .. taken long tours and just left plastic bags on mine.

I've just set my Brooks Pro Aside , as I lock the bike up outside, and so use weather resistant care-reduced
saddles on the daily rider ..

Currently a Vinyl Pleather covered sort-of Turbo like one i got for a buck at a Charity Shop. made for Trek.


though there are expensive pleather covered saddles out there Fizik of Italy makes some ,
carbon fiber rails an shells. road

Racers super light stuff..

PDW has began selling a dense foam saddle it needs no cover, wont absorb water, and is said
by seller, to be tough and abrasion resistant,, the perfect wet muddy Portland Cross race saddle..

Literally thousands of saddles out there.. not all butts and riders are the same, hence the variety..
