omg brooks saddles are amazing. i dont want to ride on anything else. i had a san marco rolls, it hurt my ass, i had a KHS concor looking saddle, it hurt my ass. i had something else on this bike, it hurt my ass. i LOVE my brooks saddle soo much. the springs are a bit much, on this saddle. but omg the comfort. ive done a century on my track bike and absolutely no discomfort.. my legs on the other hand LOL.

I used to frequent roadbikereview.com, but I've kinda fallen off the bandwagon of looking at all the new stuff coming out. I have a pretty nice bike, but the modding bug always bites hard. I've tried riding fixed one time at a Fit meet, but the bike was kinda small for me. I'm actually going to go to a triple. I want more gear ratio spread and fewer holes in the ratios than I get with my compact double. I might keep an eye out for a brooks saddle for sale. I've heard break in on those is kinda bad. Any suggestions on making it a painless (or mostly painless) process?

the breakin is a myth. ride it out of the box. dont tension it ever.
the brooks saddle is a hit or miss saddle, for sure. most love them, some dont. if you get a chance, try one out before you spend money on it.

Saw this on MTBR.com the other day posted by misuge. Pretty cool!
