I've only ridden a b17 twice but in both cases they were brand new - never ridden and in both cases they immediately had give and I have to say were quite comfortable right off the bat. My only problem with the brooks is the leather - everything else about them seems to be exactly what a lot of people want from a saddle. -sv --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
