BROOKS CAMBIUM C15 Saddle Black

The BROOKS C15 saddle is the "narrow" model in the Cambium family, designed specifically for a more sporting and committed riding position. If the C17 is the queen of commuting, the C15 is the one for cyclosportif riders and Gravel enthusiasts who spend long hours with their hands on the drops.

Its width of 140 mm allows a completely fluid leg movement, eliminating any risk of inner thigh chafing during fast pedalling. Like its siblings, it relies on vulcanised natural rubber technology: a flexible structure that acts as an integrated shock absorber, filtering out road or trail irregularities. Its technical covering is designed to last a lifetime, resistant to UV and moisture without ever losing its shape.

C15 or C17, how to choose? The choice depends on your riding position. If your handlebars are noticeably lower than your saddle, the C15 is ideal as it supports the sit bones without restricting movement. If you ride more "upright" (urban position), the C17 will be more comfortable.

Does it slip with cycling shorts? The textured nylon covering provides excellent grip. You won't slide forward, even during hard braking or intense climbing efforts, while still allowing micro-adjustments to your position.

Is it suitable for women? The C15 is a unisex saddle. However, for female anatomy, the C17 (wider) or the "Carved" versions are often recommended to relieve pressure. It all depends on the width of your sit bones.

Is the saddle stiff? It has a firm feel to the touch, but once you sit on it, the structure gets to work. It is this controlled flexibility that has earned Brooks Cambium saddles their reputation over stiff plastic saddles with foam padding.
