5 Stars Brooks Champion Flyer pros and cons
The Brooks Champion Flyer is my fourth Brooks bicycle saddle. My first lasted twenty years. I bought the Champion Flyer for a hardtail mountain bike that I have been using as my around-town, utility bike.
Pros: The saddle is perfectly designed, constructed, and finished. It is absolute art, even in the standard-rivet model. The springs are firm, even for me at 220 lbs, so riding efficiency is not diminished. The springs do absorb both small vibrations and the occasional bigger impact. The result is that you feel less fatigued after a longer (10+ mile) ride than you would without the springs.
The saddle fits standard bicycle rails.
Brooks saddles, once broken-in, are custom-fit comfortable, and will never disappoint you.
The saddle comes with a spanner wrench for tightening. This becomes more important after break-in, to keep the leather taut.
Cons: This saddle doesn’t come with a tin of the proofhide saddle dressing.
