Brooks B18 Lady saddle review

Brooks’ B18 Lady isn’t a saddle designed for hours and hours of riding, yet none of our women testers found it in the slightest bit uncomfortable.

Due to its twin loop-sprung rail design, you cannot use the B18 with a modern-style seatpost. It has to be mounted to a traditional-style seatpost with no ‘head’.

The leather (which also forms the body of the saddle) is exquisitely finished, an example of perfect craftsmanship – which is what we expect from Brooks. 

If you want classic retro that’s comfy and will last for decades but you can ignore the huge weight, this is a wonderful saddle.
