This saddle was designed for one-mile and half-mile races, and was the preferred choice of track racers before the 1960s. Like all Brooks leather saddles, the B17 Narrow is handcrafted in our Smethwick, UK factory using vegetable-tanned leather, which molds to your body shape and develops a beautiful aged patina over time. It is both stylish and the perfect choice for track racing, urban fixed gear, or professional riders.\u003c\/blockquote\u003e    \u003c\/div\u003e    \u003cdiv class=\"card-deck\"\u003e      \u003cdiv class=\"card card-padding\"\u003e        \u003cdiv\u003e          \u003ch3\u003eMaintenance Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e        \u003c\/div\u003e        \u003cdiv\u003e          \u003cp\u003eMaintaining your saddle ensures it becomes comfortable and durable. Proofide is the only substance to be applied for leather saddle care. It is carefully formulated with special ingredients to nourish, preserve, and waterproof, helping to keep the leather soft. With regular use, the saddle will adapt to your body shape and retain its beauty, comfort, and support. A new saddle should be treated at least once to aid the \"breaking-in period\" and protect it from environmental elements. Never use Proofide on a wet saddle. Apply a small amount of Proofide to the leather surface, allow it to penetrate until dry, then polish thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent residue from staining clothes. Also apply it to the underside of the saddle; leaving it on the underside helps prevent moisture and dirt. It can be used multiple times during the break-in period, and then periodically thereafter, but do not overuse. After the break-in period, it's normal to adjust the tension moderately to maintain shape and comfort. When adjusting, turn the nose bolt clockwise 90° each time, checking if the tension is appropriate. You can use a specialized wrench or an Allen key for adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e        \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv class=\"card card-padding\"\u003e        \u003cdiv\u003e          \u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.)\u003c\/h3\u003e        \u003c\/div\u003e        \u003cdiv\u003e          \u003ch6\u003eWhich Brooks saddle is right for me?\u003c\/h6\u003e          \u003cp\u003eOur leather saddles offer different shapes and styles based on bicycle type or riding posture. For example, wider saddles with springs are suitable for a 90-degree upright posture. Medium-width saddles are generally used for touring or commuting, where the rider's spine angle is approximately 45 to 60 degrees. The general rule is: the more athletic the riding posture, the narrower the saddle.\u003c\/p\u003e          \u003ch6\u003eWhy do I need to \"break in\" my leather saddle?\u003c\/h6\u003e          \u003cp\u003eNew leather, due to multiple tanning treatments and factory shaping, has very strong but also quite stiff fibers. \"Breaking in\" is the process of making the saddle leather soft and flexible. Time, use, and careful maintenance are key to bringing the saddle to its optimal state. Primarily through riding, the leather will conform to your anatomical shape and become more flexible. Over time, the natural movement of the leather will act like a hammock while riding. However, be careful not to let the leather sag too low, otherwise it will come into contact with the metal structure, causing damage, and you will feel discomfort from sitting on the rails or seatpost.\u003c\/p\u003e        \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv class=\"card card-padding\"\u003e        \u003cdiv\u003e          \u003ch3\u003e10-Year Warranty\u003c\/h3\u003e        \u003c\/div\u003e        \u003cdiv\u003e          \u003cp\u003eRegister your leather saddle on the Brooks official website within 3 months of the purchase date to extend the standard 2-year warranty to a total of 10 years.\u003c\/p\u003e        \u003c\/div\u003e        \u003chr\u003e        \u003ch3\u003eHandcrafted by British Artisans\u003c\/h3\u003e        \u003cp\u003eBrooks England saddles are handcrafted in the UK.
