TheBrooks B17 saddle —the best-selling model for over 100 years—is the ideal bike saddle for everyday use, Gravel riding, road cycling, and touring. Extremely comfortable thanks to its flexible, hammock-like performance that moves with every pedal stroke, the B17 is a bike saddle designed for a 60° riding angle. Handcrafted in England from beautiful, durable, 100% vegetable-tanned leather that will mold and shape itself individually to each rider, the B17 features a riveted finish and premium-quality steel rails.
The Brooks B17 Narrow Carved Saddle is a narrow racing saddle originally introduced in 1910. Built for mile and half-mile events, this saddle was the choice of track cyclists until 1960. Made in England. With its classic style, this saddle is perfect for track cycling, urban fixies, and cyclists looking for a narrow saddle to ride with freedom.
The B17 Carved features the central cutout, designed over 100 years ago by Brooks. The “registered cutout,” according to the 1890 catalog, is “a sure way to relieve pressure on the perineal area.”
Durable vegetable-tanned leather
Only the finest, top-quality vegetable-tanned leather is used to ensure strength, beauty, and durability.
Handcrafted since 1866
Our workshops have been crafting iconic Brooks leather saddles for over 150 years.
Long-lasting comfort and breathability
Leather is a naturally breathable material that provides a unique sense of comfort. The leather top is suspended over the saddle rail to create a contoured, suspended seat—similar to a hammock—for long-lasting, personalized comfort.
Molds to your shape over time
Ride after ride, our leather naturally molds to the rider’s unique shape for a more comfortable ride.
