    What's this ... not a 'Brooks' or a Sun - Carlton?

    Having missed this 1940's Rochet last week, which went for £33 as I was too busy to bid, I decided to have a go on something else: Rochet: Termed a 'Brooks' I haven't a clue what it is: Nice lugs: Any ideas before I start hunting when I collect?

    Breaking in a Brooks saddle the unofficial way

    I have one I have had for ten years or more. Only used on my tourer (next trip is trans USA www.usacycle2018.com) and I did cheat when I broke it in. Will look that process up in a moment and post it here. Anyway, looking for advice on how to apply Brooks Proofide, I came across a video...

    Butchering a Brooks

    In 2008 I cycled JoGLE, over 900 miles, and experienced no bottom issues. "So what!" I hear you cry. The point is that I didn't know what I was doing, I had no proper cycling gear, and I was riding 80-90 miles a day; but I was riding a Brooks B17. In 2016 I cycled 250 miles in two days, not on...

    A little help with a Brooks Swallow please

    I've bought a couple of Brooks saddles off a friend who's been trying to find his perfect perch(?), one's a nice honey B17 for the partner's bike, and the other one is a B15 Swallow for my road bike. These are as new with barely a mark on them, yet the swallow doesn't seem as tight as I would...

    Brooks B17 Special.

    It's a couple of years old and I have replaced with a Brooks Cambium. Brooks recently gave it an overhaul because the original thread had become stuck, so that part is new. I'm unlikely to use it anymore so it's currently a very easy on the eye ornament. I'm not desperate to sell and I'd prefer...

    Brooks Cambium saddle - should it be comfortable straight away?

    Hi All, I am currently trialing a Brooks Cambium C15 which I’ve been lucky to get on loan. I’ve been thinking about getting a Brooks Cambium saddle not because of a specific problem with my current saddle but more from the point of view that if I can get something more comfortable than what I...

    **No longer available** Brooks MT21 multi-tool

    I bought this on a whim and while it’s a beautiful multi-tool, it’s just not for me. It also comes with a brown leather pouch/cover. It's brand new (£40) but I’m selling for £30 + p&p (£5 - it’s quite heavy). Thanks.

    Brooks saddle advice.

    The long screw that tensions the saddle snapped today, and my local Evans didn't have a spare. I think I'll need to buy a new screw to fix it. In the meantime I bought a cheap saddle from them to get me to and from work etc. The saddle (and the bike) are less than 2 years old so I wondered if...

    Leather brooks to replace faulty cambium - which one?

    My Brooks Cambium C15 has developed a crack in the rubber along the line of the nose plate about 10 months from new - a common problem with the cambium range it seems - and brooks (and the shop) are prepared to do a swap or give credit no problem. I found the saddle comfortable but have decided...

    Saddle to replace my standard perch.

    I'm now a couple of months into my Specialized Diverge Sport and thinking of replacing the standard saddle with something more comfortable. As per a number of advice posts online, I measured my sitbones, and came up with 130mm, which (I am advised) should mean I should go for a saddle width of...

    This is the female version of the Cambium, which is a tad wider than the male one. It has seen very little use, as my other half did not like it. 50 pounds posted.
