What customers say about "Key Specs"
Brooks B66 Bicycle Saddle with Clamp (Men's)
  • The B66 is the upright touring seat for the what are commonly called Cruisers today. Yes it is $150, but you would not buy lesser priced shoes, that hurt your feet to save 50-70%
  • Firm wide leather hide saddle has plenty of support for your sit bones and cradles your behind rather than sitting on an overstuffed bean-bag that rides up your crack.
  • After more than 10 years of use, it still looks almost perfectly new, with just a slight "polishing" of the rivets visible.
  • The leather does not seem to trap much body heat, and in fact has three small "ventilation" holes on the top, so feels noticeably cooler when riding in warm weather.
  • I brought this to see what all the hype about brooks saddles was about. I didn't think these would be comfortable but I was proven wrong I really love this seat.
Brooks B67 Bicycle Saddle (Men's)
  • I needed a comfortable one, so B67 with springs and wider surface was my choice.
  • It is the most comfortable bike seat that I have ever owned and will never depart from it.
  • The leather is made of quality hides, that are thick and will mold to your backside and your gentlemanly parts as well.
  • Leather will mold to your seating position and riding style as it ages.
  • The leather on the bottom of the seat is cracked.

What customers say about "Features"
Brooks B66 Bicycle Saddle with Clamp (Men's)
  • The large springs make even Chicago's horribly maintained city streets easy to bike on.
  • This saddle is unbelievably comfortable, you may not think so by looking at it, one molded piece of hard leather, but, ergonomically it's amazing.
  • I go over any one of the 673 major bumps in the road on my 2 mile commute and the springs absorb all of the shock.
  • This is a great saddle for a commuter bicycle because of its springs and the wide design.
  • Spring suspension makes riding an upright bike a breeze even on pothole-strewn urban streets.
Brooks B67 Bicycle Saddle (Men's)
  • This is the perfect width for me and the springs help dampen the road jolts.
  • Do the springs work? Yes! I weigh 165-170 and can feel the springs flexing (i.e. absorbing shock) when I hit bumpy patches on my way to work.
  • It's a good seat and the springs take up a surprising amount of road jitter.
  • This saddle is superior in quality, function, and form.
  • These are nice saddles and the springs help.
