^^^ What kind of seatpost do you have that uses a screwdriver to adjust the saddle position ? Every seatpost i've ever seen uses an allen (hex) key.

You do know that the C series, C15 & C17 have zero leather in them! they are vulcanized rubber saddles.

You do know he was answering a question asked in the thread's second post, right?

Ive been riding a C17 for a couple months. At first I thought I liked my B17 better. But I kept riding it. Got on the other bike with the B17 yesterday. and I think my arse prefers the C17 now. Plus I like the idea of rubber saddle on my commuter/all-weather/beater bike. YMMV though.

My bad, I just called it a screwdriver because it is a long handheld one like a screwdriver, but the tip is a hex or whatever. I have a Thomson seat post.

Oh burn. Some people don't like reading anything other than the first post. But yeah, the only reason I started this thread is because I know the saddle isn't leather.

I wasn't talking to you.

You don't have to tend a thread you've started, they run their course just fine without the OP bumping them back up.

No, you were talking to me, but it's a week old post/comment, too old to edit/the error should have been picked up at the time (the OP didn't seem to care about it at the time/didn't clarify what is above now.)

You can always edit a post you've made, regardless of how old it is.

Edit: Honestly, who cares.

If you can afford a Brooks Cambium, then you can afford a cheap hex key set to do most maintenance / adjustments on your bike.

I'm seriously trying to figure out what your post has to do with his. Did you even read his post?
