Bike Fashion - need opinions

Roguedog: Yeah, I thought of that. I have to have the Brooks though! I am just dithering about colors I really like the idea of the honey with the red though.

I hear ya. I've been trying to replace my B17 with a more looking modern saddle and so far it's just not quite the same.

to some of us, a Brooks on a good road bike frame is the ultimate in fashion.

Honey w/red will look great, but as someone else said, IMHO, the modernness of the frame with the "vintage" nature of the saddle would be incongruous. Just my thoughts.

I kind of like the look of the modern frame with a vintage looking saddle. Very eclectic

Definitely go for the honey brown. I love the combo of red and tan.

I have the Brooks Team Pro in honey on my Madone and it looks great. How the saddle looked wasn't important to me, it was needing a saddle that would be pain-free for the distant rides. However the saddle looks awesome on a modern bike, which was an added bonus for me. The honey color does darken with use and weather exposure. If you click on my user id, there is a photo of my bike with a yellow Selle An-Atomica on it, not the Brooks, but you can see how modern the bike is.

I have a Brooks Honey-colored Flyer S on my black and white Jamis. The handlebar tape on was a tan cork-color, so I thought the honey would at least blend well with it. And it does...and just like others have said, it's a Brooks! It's going to look good and FEEL good no matter what!!
