I wanted to try this Brooks Professional, maybe it was the correct height and in that case no need getting the seatpost off. Because the seatpost was dismantled I had to use a donor seatpost, lots of rust and on one side a part of the saddle strap did not loose ...
Finally it succeeded. And the good news is, the saddle has the desired height.
