Brooks B66 value
I found a B66 attached to a Raleigh Sport ladies frame that appears to be a 1973 or so. The bike is dirty and has lots of surface rust on the bright parts. It looks complete and original, but there are the condition issues. I would be buying it mainly for the saddle, so what ould you pay for a B66 that will need a little TLC?

Bikes: No-name LH drive track. Also ride an Exxon Graftek, a Masi, a Trek R200 or a RR Boneshaker for fun!

Leather saddles are tricky because they are made of organic material; i.e. leather.
Condition is everything, and one man's "lightly used" is another man's "good for seat rails only" since we all have different eyesight.
In other words, we need a "glamorous photo" of the object in question.

OK. The photos are no good - forget the posting.
