BROOKS CAMBIUM C17 PORTER Saddle Black

The BROOKS Saddle C17 Porter is an exclusive variant of Brooks England's iconic Cambium range. Designed for the modern urban cyclist and the discerning commuter, it stands out for its unique finish and its commitment to immediate comfort. Unlike the brand's traditional leather saddles, the C17 Porter requires no "break-in" period: it is comfortable from the very first kilometre.

Its natural vulcanised rubber structure offers a natural flexibility that absorbs road vibrations (cobblestones, potholes) for a "hammock"-like comfort. The surface is covered with a weather- and abrasion-resistant textured nylon, making this saddle an ideal choice for those who leave their bike outdoors or ride in all weather conditions. The "Porter" design adds a touch of sophisticated utilitarian style, perfect for cargo bikes, premium city bikes or touring builds.

What is the difference between a Cambium and a Brooks leather saddle? The Cambium is a "ready to ride" saddle. It offers similar comfort to an already broken-in leather saddle, but it is completely waterproof and requires no maintenance. It is perfect for those who want the Brooks look without the constraints of leather.

Isn't the C17 too wide for a sports bike? The C17 is the versatile version. At 162 mm wide, it is ideal for a semi-upright riding position. If you have a very stretched-out position (pure road racing bike), you might prefer the C15, which is narrower. For city riding and touring, the C17 is the comfort standard.

Can I fit a Brooks saddle bag? Absolutely. Like all Brooks saddles, the C17 Porter is fitted with loops at the rear to easily attach a traditional saddle bag or other luggage accessories.
