The tension bolt on my 26 month old B.17 Champion Special cracked today, and I'm wondering what to do for repair. I know that it is over the 2-year Brooks Warranty, and I'm not sure if this is something I could take on DIY, or if it would have to be sent into Brooks. Also wondering if now is the time to try a Berthoud for what I've heard is a higher quality of workmanship.
I'm wondering if I might have contributed to this failure by a) grabbing it under the nose to walk it up stairs (to avoid ruining dynohub cable) and b) tightening the tension bolt a half turn about 3 months ago because it felt a bit swaying. Have any of you all had this happen and either repaired it or had Brooks repair/replace it for you? I'd hate to lose this saddle, as I've put about 5,000+ miles on it and it's super-duper comfy. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
