Hello

Just got my first Brooks saddle, a Swallow Titanium.

Looks very nice, and I applied the Proofide to it this evening.

Then I noticed how the frame is out of alignment with the top.





In the first image, looking down, the frame is too far left.

I have tried adjusting the tension nut, but to no avail.

Is this "normal" for new Brooks saddles?
Should I ride it and hope it corrects itself with my weight, or return it?
