For sale are two brand new Brooks saddles. I received them as payment for a favour I did for Brooks.
Brooks B17 Standard, brown, £50
This is the standard B17 saddle with black steel rails and chromed steel rivets. The colour is very slightly less of a rich red in real life (nicer, basically). I have one of these in honey and love it... classic and comfortable. It's supplied boxed with Brooks spanner (for tensioning leather). They sell for £70 usually.

Brooks B17 Special, dark green, £65
This is the 'special' B17 with beautiful hammered copper rivets and matching copper-plated rails. I don't think this colour will be around forever. I've seen one after having been used for a while and they age really nicely. Supplied boxed with Brooks spanner (for tensioning leather) and Brooks rain cover. They sell for £90 usually.

Dibs and PMs please. Payment by Paypal ideally. I'd prefer if these were picked up from me (near to Old Street roundabout), but will post at cost (£6+) if necessary.
Thanks for looking,
Josh
