B17's don't work for me. I've switched to Brooks Swift saddles as I seem to have sit bones that 'sit' a Swift best. The recent discussion of Brooks saddle reminded me (and my sponsor) that I still need to address my hoarding problem of Rivendell bicycles and related components:
I found the following 3 saddles in the hoard: 1. New B17 - $80 plus shipping - bought several years back, hasn't been mounted, uses copper rivets, has thick leather. 2. Used B17 Special - $60 plus shipping - Rode it for ~1k miles on my Bleriot, thick leather, some scrapes on back. 3. Used B17 - $30 plus shipping - Purchased used online, broken in, likely has several thousand remaining miles. Planning to use USPS flat rate boxes and will only ship domestically shipping should be $12.

Doesn't give one confidence that they can survive. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
