The B17 Imperial is a spin the flagship B17 Standard saddle, with an added cutout for extra comfort and shorter break in times. Its ideal for long distance cycle touring, trekking, and atb use. It also makes a great commuter saddle. Being a leather saddle, it takes a few rides to break in, in the neighborhood of a hundred miles. You’ll find that it becomes more comfortable with each ride you make on it.
It is a laced saddle to keep it from “hammocking” as it breaks in, and it comes with several colors of laces to choose from.
To protect the leather, we recommend treating the saddle with Proofide, Brooks’ own saddle oil. You can find this on our website under accessories. This will keep it protected if it gets a little wet and aid in the break-in process. The B17 Imperial features steel rails, is machine riveted, and comes with a tensioning wrench.
