The Wharfe saddle from Spa Cycles is rather like a Brooks Swift...and a lot cheaper. This is what you get inside the box:
A little tool for the nose bolts, and a cloth bag to put it in. I fitted it to a new alloy seat post for the BSA 20, and added a Carradice Zipped Roll saddlebag:
It's quite a 'racy' saddle, and I wonder if I'd have been better off with the Nidd which is like a Brooks B17. We'll see, time will tell.
Apart from improving the appearance, the new saddle n post saved nearly half a kilo in weight:
Old (g) | New (g) | |
Saddle: | 910 | 525 |
Seatpost and clamp: | 470 | 380 |
Totals: | 1380 | 905 |
