I actually knew the answer to my own question since I have one. I just didn't want to come right out and say you're wrong. I will say you are wrong about the 7/8" saddle clamps. All Brooks saddles still come with them. Two and three-railed saddles are still being sold and can be mounted to posts with an integrated clamp with a Joe Breeze Seat Sandwich.
