Description
Brooks’ best-selling model for over 100 years, the Brooks B17 saddle is the ideal bicycle saddle for commuting, gravel, road and touring use. This is a supremely comfortable leather saddle thanks to its flexible, hammock-like design.
Brooks leather saddles are still handmade in England from beautiful and durable 100% vegetable tanned leather. Meaning they will mould and shape individually to you as you ride it. Your saddle will only become more comfortable over time, and that’s why its a great upgrade to any bike!
This is easily the most popular saddle Brooks bring in to Australia, and is a house favourite at Abbotsford Cycles. Working perfectly as a commuter bike saddle & a touring or gravel riding saddle, the B17 is always comfortable. If you have ever considered a leather saddle, this is the one to try.

CARE INFORMATION – A new saddle should be treated with Brooks Proofide Saddle Dressing to help assist the “breaking-in” process.

How to choose the right Brooks Saddle
When it comes to choosing a saddle, it can be extremely challenging to figure out what you need. A good quality saddle is not cheap, and it can be difficult to commit to something you haven’t sat on.
But Brooks saddles are some of the best you can buy. So even if you are unsure, you are in the right place.
Brooks Saddle’s have a numbering system refers to the width of the saddle. The width of the saddle reflects both the width of your sit bones, and the riding position you are in.
In this case, the B17 is a pretty standard saddle designed for a broad range of cycling disciplines. This makes it the ideal saddle for your commuter bike, your road bike or gravel bike.
