Modern Brooks is very different yet familiar

- Robin, 13 July, 2023

My leather Brooks racing saddle gave way, quickly found a replacement in this one. Seats right away, no more breaking in! You also stay in place, especially compared to smooth leather. Although that too takes some getting used to. For my 94 kg it sinks in just a bit more than desired; you might get used to that.

Pros & Cons

Good anti-slip
Not too expensive
Sits perfectly right away
Could have been a bit harder
Slightly too good anti-slip

Great!

- Remco, 28 March, 2023

I should have bought this saddle much earlier, as I no longer have low back pain. The construction is very different from the standard gel saddle. The saddle surface consists of a kind of rubber cloth, which is stretched between the nose of the saddle and the back. As a result, it springs in slightly when you ride off-road, for example. Ideal for a gravel bike, but it would also do well on a road bike. The disadvantage is the high weight (469 grams. However, I gladly take that for granted given the tremendous comfort and cool looks.

Filters out bumps
Mega comfortable
No more sore bum after 100 km.

Surprisingly comfortable saddle without any maintenance

- Nick, 17 August, 2022

Replaced my previous leather Brooks 17 with a C17 after 11 years. Very comfortable and I don't have to worry about wet weather, saddle tightening or maintenance. No regrets about the purchase. Bike again with great pleasure.

Sq lab or brooks c17? My preference goes to brooks

- Leo, 23 July, 2022

First had the sq lab 610 is a fine saddle that I cycled 10000 km with the only downside being the lateral support. So you often have to find the right sitting position when cycling over a bump. The brooks c17 does not have this problem. You sit on it with good stability. But with the brooks, you have to use it a bit longer to get used to the saddle pain. I have now done 300km on it and I must say this saddle is quite comfortable

- Jean-Christophe, 23 June, 2022

At last! After trying countless saddles like many cyclists and sometimes believing that this was the one, I'm sure I've found it! No pain at all after a 160 km ride, it's so pleasant :)

Nice saddle at a reasonable price

Fine saddle with classic look. The horizontal adjustment is limited. In combination with a straight seat post, the saddle may not be able to be mounted far enough back.

Comfortable
Withstands rain

A nice, comfortable saddle at a decent price

- Alexandre, 15 February, 2022

Very good first impressions of this Brooks saddle, After just over 500 km, including sessions of 4 hours or more, I'm not worried about comfort at the moment. It just needed a little breaking-in period of around a hundred kilometres to make it more flexible, and I hope that this flexibility won't change the shape even more. The octane colour is really pretty and makes you want to enjoy it :)

Super saddle and comfortable!

- Hanno, 25 October, 2021

The saddle is not padded, but still comfortable because the whole saddle is made of a relatively soft material and is therefore quite flexible! I am very satisfied.

Great saddle that fits well despite hardness

- Marco, 25 July, 2021

My previous bike had a Brooks Cambium as standard. Despite being a hard saddle, you can sit well on it. Better than much softer saddles. I recently bought another bike and now another Cambium saddle for this one.

Pros & Cons

Easy to mount
Seats well
Sleek design
Slightly too hard

The problem solver saddle

- Andreas, 23 June, 2021

I bought this Brooks saddle for my new bike in blue to match the colour of the bike. But the background was that my feet and/or one of my hands fell asleep on long flat stretches. After the Brooks saddle had excellent reviews everywhere, I wanted to know what was really in it. Bought-very quickly delivered-converted and...... ..... as if this had always been my saddle (and I have tried many in the last twenty years) the seating comfort is excellent despite the absence of a gel layer! You immediately find a good sitting position within a very short time and just feel good! There are certainly cheaper saddles, this one is rather high-priced, like everything that comes from the UK, but the comfort when sitting and the fact that the limb no longer falls asleep was worth every euro to me.

Fantastic saddle

- Maarten, 10 November, 2020

Used to have a leather version of a Brooks saddle, but always fiddled with a plastic bag to protect the saddle from. So with the C17 Cambium, that is no longer necessary! Just as comfortable as a leather saddle.

Pros & Cons

Just as comfortable as a leather saddle
Nice tight saddle for sporty touring bikes
