Brooks Professional Saddle - $75 shipped

Brooks Professional saddle

I was told it came off a early 70's Peugeot PX-10 but I can't verify

Rode it on my Miyata 1000 for the 2017 Eroica

Well used but completely solid. Leather is taught with no significant flaws. Rails are good without rust

Some discoloration in leather and scuffs in the back. Brooks badge is slightly askew

Has been treated with Brooks Proofhide on a few occasions to maintain leather suppleness

$75 shipped

Curious -- I'm typically a b17 rider. However I've got a bike with a slightly more aggressive position at times (Jones H-bars in the TT position) and the slight uptilt I use with B17 bothers me to hold that position. Would a Professional potentially solve this issue?

I doubt it would do any good. My experience with Brooks is that the B17 is one of their most comfortable saddles. The Professional, not so much until it is broken in and it take some time to break a Pro in, in my opinion.

You might just want to change the tilt to accommodate the more aggressive riding position of the bike.
