Going to put a Brooks on my new tourer since my trusty B17 has served me so well, but I was thinking about a sprung one this time, so two questions:
Flyer or B67? The flyer is just a B17 with springs, so since the B17 fits me well it's the obvious choice right? New bike will be flat bars and fairly upright riding position though.
Select or standard? Does anyone have any experience with the select, I suppose they haven't really been about long enough to judge the durability. Worth the extra wedge, or just shameless market segmentation?
