Brooks on a carbon bike

[steveindenmark]

Would it be a total sin if I put a black Brooks swallow or Swift on a black, carbon road bike?

Should I care if it is a sin as long as my arxe is comfy?

I like Brooks saddles.

I think you answered your own question.

Do it.... Your bike, your bum... forget what people think

+1 nothing worse than a sore posterior.

 

[screenman]

As long as you keep it covered whilst not sitting on it I can see no problems.

 

[PpPete]

Yes.
A honey Brooks will look much better. Surprised me, but it does.

 

[VamP]

It will look shite, but if you can live with it, who are we to tell you otherwise.

 

[Rob3rt]

It is a crime!

 

[Wooliferkins]

Go for it, you'll be riding the Brooks long after the tupperware frame has gone west

i was tempted to with my carbon bike, but as the b17 weighed half as much as the frameset, it seemed a bit too much…

 

[Twotter]

If it's any help I'm currently considering putting a Brooks on my Allez. There, I feel better now, and I hope my posterior will do too

That's akin to strapping a race horse to a dust cart :crimestoppers

 

[Kestevan]

Strapping a Brooks to anything is a crime..... fortunately it comes with its own in-built punishment.
