is there a bolt under the nose of the saddle that lets you readjust the tension?

yeah, it's fully spent. Gave it a good few turns last time i went out, was good for about 20mins then it was hammock again so the leather's far too stretched already

Can you not punch holes along the sides and 'lace' the saddle back into shape- as per "back in the day.."? :O)

ah, didn't know you could do that. Might be worth a try but not sure I want to. It's really beautifully broken in now and the leather looks fantastic, think I want to keep it as it is tbh

I've got a used black titanium B17... Coupla tiny scuffs on it but almost as new, I'll take £70 for it...

new or second hand?would prefer second hand, but new is fine too if I can't find anything else. Money depends on condition and model of course
Think hilarystones prices sets the bar for second hand prices. You got anything going?

Why do you want to keep it as it is if it is no use to you that way?

fair point but I'm not sure I should attempt to do it on a nice old seat that had its life, don't wanna risk ruining it
And since I got it hard enough with the bolt but it stretched out again in just a short ride I don't know how much more time I would actually buy it

my one is a special edition in green.... 60GN?
My old b17 has gone hammock soft so need a new brooks.
My rear has liked both b17s and a team pros, so any of those will def do, colour doesn't really matter.
Wouldn't mind a swift or swallow though if the price is right
