Out With The Old… In With The…

Out with the old torn Brooks saddle.

In with the other old Brooks saddle.

When I got this bike the seat that was on it was in really bad shape so I put on an old used Brooks B72 saddle that I had taken off some old Raleigh I had at some point. I recently noticed it was tearing so I replaced it today with another old used Brooks B72 I had. These Brooks models are made for the old style seat post clamps and not the newer “micro-adjust” clamps as they have smaller double rails. I shim the bottom rails with some small diameter plastic tubing slit lengthwise to make it work.
