For 20 €, I'm not sure if it's worth the go. Also keeping an eye on a couple of near-mint second hand Brooks examples, waiting for the seller to answer to my bargaining effort
Do your research here before buying. Don't buy an ADGA saddle at any price. Sure I know someone may like them but they were a cauchemar for most of us.

Good saddle discussion. I'll try a Gyes if I see one.

Edit non-fixie nice B17S, I can ride that. Nice early tribute to Bunnie Wailer too.
