I have not ..


The Brooks Pro I got 30 years ago, never had any loops at all , I added bolt to the rails bag loops , steel .


Yours would have survived if just a wee tool bag was fitted at most, ..



but, D'oh ! .. tore out when you packed up a Carradice Camper Nelson long flap , spring action and

lock and chain probably did it, shifting around and all . was the bag strapped to the seat post too,?



Overloaded sheared off, as its just a grommet in leather , adding just a bit of stability, at most .

and another way to support the load rather than a grommet in a piece of leather would be better..

there are Brooks saddle frames that have the bag loop on the rear steel part instead, I think .. that would be a better option


something else in the Brooks catalog . B67? Wire loops not looking real sturdy though..

I have a Carradice (superC) on a separate sub frame and a rear rack . (I was also adapting non leather saddle)

Decades of use .. Pro was bought in the mid 70's..

It's been used on a few long bike tours , but then the load was primarily in panniers ..
