  • When should you start using the tension bolt - aside from the saddle looking a bag-o-shite as above, what are the first indicators that more tension is needed.

    Skully - what cover - if any do you recommend for the rain - I have been using the brooks cover that came with the saddle & it seems to do a fairly reasonable job in all but torrential rain - or have you considered extending your range of brooks related services into the construction of a decent cover.... just a thought & dibs first one pls.

    Just seen this, sorry.

    Use the tension bolt when your saddle starts to become softer than you'd like it to be. I had a new B17 in honey that was lovely and comfy from the start, ridden about three times a week for 18 months or so, then started to get too soft, turned the bolt a little, and now as good as new.

    Saddle cover: plastic bag, keep it tucked under the saddle so it's there when you need it. Easy peasy.
