If I could commit $180 dollars or so to a Select version of the

Definitely like the recently released B17 'Select' model ("the bestest one

But if they swapped out the matte black enamel steel rails with copper and
added RBW stamping, I could see it being one of their best sellers ever.

Thanks, Marty, I just burned a half-hour cruising through Mr. Siple's very
excellent photos.

Liesl,
I'd like to piggy-back on your last comment, and add that I would also JUMP
at the chance to get a Rivendell Rider B17!
I'd bet that there'd be plenty of Riv owners who would belly up to the bar
to buy one! Grant?

Didn't the Rivendell b17 basically turn into the Champion Special?

Not yet. Thinking about it, though. Also like the look and wondering
how it will beausage with all my sweat. Hoping the thicker leather
will hold up under my weight. It's on my list of wants for this year.

Speaking of Brooks and Rivendell anybody try the new B17 "select"? 168
bucks but thicker leather, big rivets, and a natural color...looks
good.

The story I'd like to hear is to what degree Rivendell propped up Brooks in the
late '90s. Sure, Harris and Wallingford sold some, but to my memory, Riv's
tireless advocacy largely resurrected the US market for Brooks after it had
almost died. I've never seen numbers but it wouldnt surprise me i
I'm not sure there is a story. Back in the day Rivendell sold some saddles
that had a custom logo on it. I am sure it just takes some money to have
Brooks do that for you.
