## Questions & Answers

**Q: The brooks saddle honey-black rails price 79.99 is box or just oem please?**
A: I'm not sure what the exact question is but Brooks is a High End Specialty Bike Seat Manufacturer. Some bike manufacturers may supply Brooks Saddles but they don't make them themselves. I hope this answers your question.

**Q: I've heard it is slippery, is it true? Does that present a problem during riding or does that go away with break in?**
A: I have very little problem with the saddle being slippery once I get it adjusted properly.

**Q: does this come with a seat post clamp?**
A: Doubt it. My Brooks saddle, actually every saddle I’ve ever gotten did not.

**Q: The description is listed at 13.25" in length. If this is short version, what is the standard version. If typo, what is the correct length?**
A: According to the Brooks website, the B17 Short is 9.5" in length. The B17 Standard is 10.8".

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great saddle
*by D***. on 11 September 2025*

Spot on saddle. Bought a used one, was in great nick and nearly new. Fitted brompton spot on

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gorgeous!
*by D***M on 19 October 2025*

Very pretty and comfi. I love it. I prepared it with some leather conditionner for 1 day after I received it. I ride it yesterday but only 20km and I find it very comfortable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Why would I use this Saddle on an Exercise Bike?
*by M***F on 21 November 2019*

Dear Reader Due to a Neurological Condition I am housebound. As part of my therapy programme I have been prescribed an exercise regime. The Exercise Bike I use is great, but the seat I got with it is a bit well...hard on the Bum to put it mildly and made using it uncomfortable. I bought a replacement which was fine for a while until the gel in that Saddle gave up the ghost and then back to the pain in the bottom scenario. Prior to becoming ill I cycled quite a bit on a Dawes Super Galaxy with a Brooks Saddle. I had that bike for the best part of 15 years. And in all that time, once the Saddle had been ridden in, I never had an uncomfortable ride due to botty pain. So yes, I use it for an exercise bike, so what. Have used it daily since purchase and there is now comfort on my up to 2 Hourly sessions on the exercise machine. If I ever get well and can ride a road bike again, I'm having Brooks Fitted.
