Brooks Professional B78 Vintage Saddle 555g Eroica SE8

The Professional B78: A British Leather Saddle

The Brooks Professional B78 is a leather saddle weighing 555g, sourced from the United Kingdom. This specific example shows oxidation, which is expected on a component of this age and is part of its patina. The photos form an integral part of the description and should be examined carefully.

Leather is the sole material. The feel is characteristically dense and supportive, shaped by years of use. This is a seat for a restoration where authenticity matters.
