Actually my reading of the letter is that their first production run is going to be a limited edition at 145 quid. These will all be numbered. I would suspect that sales after the limited edition will be less expensive.
"Now, on Monday 17th June, a specially dedicated website for the new Cambium Saddles goes live and an initial limited edition is available for sale with each saddle's number etched into its nose rivet. We are offering a total of 1,200 pieces: -1,000 C17 Gents Saddles -200 C17s Ladies Saddles" http://www.brooksengland.com/catalogue-and-shop/saddles/touring+%26+trekking/Cambium+C17+Ltd+Edition/ In the surveys I've filled out as one of the first 200 (it went up) I've kept saying I'd pay under $125 (or was it $135) which was the lowest option. Not that they'll listen to me. :-) Aloha, Bob On Mon, Jun 17, 2013 at 12:55 PM, Joe Bernard <joerem...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hmm.
