Proofide is the only substance suitable for conditioning leather saddles. Specially formulated with unique ingredients, it conditions, preserves, and waterproofs, helping to keep the leather soft and pliable. With regular use, your saddle will adapt to your body and maintain its beauty, comfort, and support. New saddles should be treated at least once to aid in \"breaking-in.\" Treat and protect your saddle from the elements. Never apply Proofide to a wet saddle. Apply a small amount of Proofide to the finished top surface of the leather, allowing it to penetrate until dry. Thoroughly wipe with a soft cloth to avoid any residual Proofide staining clothes. Also, apply Proofide to the underside of the saddle. Keep this coating to prevent dirt and moisture. During the \"breaking-in\" process, Proofide can be used multiple times. During and periodically thereafter. Do not over-use. After the break-in period, it is normal and appropriate to tension the saddle to maintain its shape and comfort. To tension the leather top, rotate the nose bolt nut clockwise, 90° at a time, checking after each turn until the desired tension is achieved. You can use the tension spanner or an Allen key.\u003c\/p\u003e        \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv class=\"card card-padding\"\u003e        \u003cdiv\u003e          \u003ch3\u003eF.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 come in different shapes and styles, depending on the type of bicycle or riding position. For example, wider saddles with springs are ideal for an upright, 90-degree posture. Medium width is generally used for touring or commuting when the rider's spine angle is at a 45 to 60-degree position. Generally, the more athletic the riding position, the narrower the saddle.\u003c\/p\u003e          \u003ch6\u003eWhy do I need to break in my leather saddle?\u003c\/h6\u003e          \u003cp\u003eDue to the tanning process and the extensive handling during the shaping process in our factory, new leather is tough. This makes the fibers very strong, but also quite stiff. \"Breaking-in\" is the process by which the saddle leather becomes softer and more pliable. Time, effort, and care are key to keeping your leather saddle in optimal condition. Primarily through riding, the leather will conform to your body shape and become more flexible. Over time, the natural movement of the leather will act like a hammock when riding. But be careful not to let the leather sag too low, as this can cause it to contact the metal structure and potentially lead to saddle failure, not to mention discomfort, as you might be sitting on the upper rails or even the seat post itself in some models.\u003cbr\u003e          \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 website within 3 months of purchase 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.
