Brooks Flyer Saddle Black with Black Steel Rail
The Flyer and its ladies model Flyer S are classically sprung saddles for long distance trekking and touring. It is directly descending from the B66 Champion, first featured in the 1927 catalogue. Sharing the same leather tops of the B17 models, they combine the comfort of these popular models with the extra suspension granted by two rear springs. Both are available with tubular steel rivets or with hand hammered copper rivets under the names of Flyer Special and Flyer S Special.

StarStarStarStarStar Brooks Flyer Saddle

by Tim K. of Fargo, ND
Product: Brooks Flyer Saddle Black with Black Steel Rail
Ownership: more than a year
Tech Knowledge: somewhat high

Pros

It fit nice when I got it, and it's even better three years later. Fits me well, and I love the looks of it on my Bianchi Eros commuter. I have about 3K on it, and it's still plenty stiff, and just starting to break in some.

This seat is heavy, but that also means it's made well and is going to last. I have installed on a steel framed bike, and this Brooks just makes my smooth ride even better.

I use the Proofide a couple times a year, and be sure to get underneath the saddle where water can splash up. You have to baby these leather saddles a bit to keep them nice.

I also have the Brooks Imperial on my Fuji carbon road bike (CCR-3), and love that one too.

Cons

The Flyer springs really don't do much to cushion the ride. They're really stiff, but they look really cool. ;-) I'm sure the B17 Standard would work just as well as the Flyer for most riders.

Other Thoughts

I'm a believer in Brooks saddles. They're nice quality, and time just makes them better.

Not for riders worried about extra ounces on their bikes.

StarStarStarStarStar Great for a semi-upright bike

by Archmedes
Product: Brooks Flyer Saddle Black with Black Steel Rail
Ownership: more than a year
Tech Knowledge: average

Pros

Suits a 350+ lb rider, no more broken rails on a pretty upright setup.

Cons

Weiner goes numb after 15 or so miles, but I can deal. Wish they made one with a cutout.

Other Thoughts

Looks sharp
