Solid saddle, nice and tight and sits well

- Rien, 23 November, 2023

Saddle after expectation. You don't slide off your will because of structure on saddle. Street nice and tight on the bike. Also fine seat comfort without cycling shorts for short rides.

Pros & Cons

Does not slide off your saddle due to structure of saddle
Solid
You sit stably on the saddle

Top purchase

- Albert, 29 August, 2023

Saddle sits perfectly. My posture is a bit more forward, so you need a narrower saddle.

Pros & Cons

Beautiful design
Easy to assemble

5 / 5

Beautiful but demanding.

- Paolo, 27 April, 2023

I have been using it recently. It is beautiful. It is yielding in the center and "works." Every little setting, tilt, forward/backward, makes itself felt where it is needed. So you have to "know" it. It is not true that it is TOP for bikepacking as if it were an armchair with eyes closed. Everyone is made in the way it is used. Let's say it is "demanding" and needs to be set up.

Pros & Cons

Beautiful design
Narrow and well designed
Sagging in the center
Still remains "hard"

All-weather saddle that combines Brooks quality when using leather is complicated.

- Murielle, 19 March, 2023

Mostly used for cycling. Used so far on two major outings. Once you've adjusted them, you'll get used to them quickly and painlessly!

Really awesome innovation.

- Marco, 27 November, 2022

This is my first Cambium but I bougth it thanks my colleagues advices. I can confirm it is special because the saddle doesn't adapt to you but you have to adapt yourself to the saddle, it's not an issue because it happens fast but you must be tenacious. If the saddle shape fits you wait a bit before giving up.

Pros & Cons

Good fitting.
Tough to adapt at first

A superb saddle that is as close to perfection for me that I have experienced.

- Neil, 24 November, 2022

I bought a gravel bike that came with this saddle as standard and I gave it a good try but expecting to have to change it for my regular saddle choice. What a revelation - the most comfortable saddle I have ever tried - and quite by chance! The striking thing about it - apart from its shape clearly fitting me perfectly - is the road vibration damping giving a noticeably smoother ride via its “rubber hammock” style of construction. I have narrow sit bones and by the “rules” of saddle width calculations, this saddle shouldn’t fit me - but it does, and perfectly. This particular purchase is to replace my regular saddle on my road bike which has 28mm Gatorskin tyres at 90psi - and the road vibration damping is even more pronounced - a completely different bike. The carved saddle also “feels” narrower by way of increasing the the flexibility of the saddle nose through the legs - and yet it maintains full comfort in the sit bone area. I am extremely pleased with this saddle but would just temper this review by reminding everyone that saddles are a personal thing - everyone is a different shape. I feel very fortunate to have found the saddle and would also add that I ride with the Castelli Progetto X2 pad in my bib shorts - they also add to my comfort also in the whole package. Other reviews mention that this saddle is on the heavy side but this isn’t an issue that I consider important - it’s lovely!

Pros & Cons

Comfort
No breaking in needed
Road vibration damping
None for me

Great product at best price.

- Marlena, 22 November, 2022

I have always wanted the comfort of a saddle and I must say that the Brooks C15 Carved Cambium all Weather a met my needs. From now on in my Gravel trips will be definitely more pleasant I recommend the Mantel site for the.best price and delivery on time.

Brooks have so much experience in saddle, ask any long distance cyclist and they will have a Brooks on their bikes. I’ve already cycled 100km without any discomfort on the C15.

It’s Brooks…

the brooks c15 is a real treat for my bottom!

- Jean Claude, 22 October, 2021

For 40 years I suffered very little from my bowel movements, but 3 years ago during a long ride in a heatwave, I felt a strong heating up equivalent to a burn and indeed I was badly burnt and I had to stop cycling for a while, After that, my rides were always painful, as if the burn had damaged my ishions. I started buying saddles by the bucketload, and even a smp evolution didn't solve anything, until I had a chat with a friend who said "do what I do, take this saddle, perhaps that it will be better" and indeed a few months ago that I bought it without really believing in it, but little by little I felt a clear improvement on the side of ishions and that goes better and better, there is a model with lighter rails which brings the weight back in the 350g but this one approaches the 500g, but I do not have the opinions on an identical comfort, this said if that can improve your excursions, do not hesitate!

Great purchase

- Paolo, 26 September, 2021

I chose Brooks because of the name. I chose Brooks because people read it and say, "he has a Brooks saddle!". I chose Brooks because it's an English brand and that's cool. I chose Brooks because this model is made in Italy. I chose Brooks because it costs the same as a saddle that weighs half as much in grams. But it's not Brooks. I chose Brooks because for the first time, from the first time, the saddle adapted to my bottom and not vice versa. I chose Brooks because in a few years my bike will have aged. It will have improved. I chose Brooks.

Pleasure dir my butt

- Frank, 21 February, 2021

I now feel much more comfortable with the saddle on my gravel pony. Flat saddle, the pain in the sit bones is gone and noticeably relieves the perineal area. Various other saddles were problematic, of course the saddle is a very personal thing and other parameters like setup and pants have to be right too. The few grams don't bother me if the seating comfort is right.

Pros & Cons

Personally felt perfect weight distribution
Relieves perineal area
Stylish
Surface somewhat anti-slip vs. leather
Weight, for those who value it

Super comfortable.

- Guy, 27 July, 2020

I bought this Brooks saddle after reading an article on the Internet; I've used several saddles from several brands, my last one was an SMP, very light and very stiff. I wanted a more comfortable saddle, so I opted for a Brooks C15 Carved Cambium and I'm delighted with it. From my 1st ride, I could feel the difference in comfort, suppleness and support. You have to adjust it carefully and feel whether you want to give it a slope or not. It's 226g heavier than my old SMP, but I don't regret it. For those who are looking for comfort rather than lightness, I would recommend this saddle.

Comfortable and durable from the off.

- Ian, 13 May, 2020

Purchased this for my CX bike currently hooked up to a smart trainer. I already had a sit bone measurement (recommded) so choice of model was straightforward. Very comfortable from the start with no break in period although you may want to experiment with a slight nose down setup.

Ass streamly relieved

- Mark, 31 July, 2019

The C15 came as highly regarded from a fellow cyclist who has replaced their stock saddle with it. Long hours in the saddle without a fatigued bum seemed like a dream to me but as my cycle mate explained “Brookes” have been in the saddle game for quite a long time now .... so they might know what their doing....give it a try! I did and my ass has never been happier! Mantel proved to be the most competitively priced supplier and they very efficiently and promptly delivered it to me. Brilliant job guys!!

Pros & Cons

Arm chair compliance
Cutaways to provide relief
Good price
Very Comfy
Waterproof
Slightly heavier than my old saddle
Steel rails?
