Post a Picture of Your Brooks and Bike

Ok girls, listen up. I WANT that Velo Orange croissant bag, but I am so vain, I'm wondering how that brown bag will look on my silver (with red and black trim) bike and black BROOKS!

So, what is there to consider that would go with mine? I have not bought seat bags or lights yet.

Sandra, you're no worse than me. That's right, i got that bag after I saw it on Lisa's bike.
At my bike shop they had a green canvas bag (expensive brand... name escapes me) and they tried to talk me into putting it on my bike. but it was GREEN!
there was NO WAY that was going on my bike!!!

so, WHAT did you have on your black bike?

**mimitabby** · 08-28-2007, 07:07 AM

oh, me? On my blue and yellow Bianchi I had a little tiny (inadequate) black canvas bag. It was only big enough for a spare tube, a multi tool, a plastic bag to protect the saddle in case of rain, rim tools & a latte lock. and every time i opened it everything fell out.

I forgot your bike was blue and yellow. I was thinking black.

That sounds like my little Trek seat bag now. I have about exactly the same thing in it, plus my cell phone, which hit the ground as soon as I unzipped it the last time we rode.

My B68 on my new Luna....

Well, Lisa, I still have YOUR Brooks! Wonder how many saddles have been ridden by more than 1 TE'er? It's on my new Surly. The fork hasn't been cut, still dialing in the fit, so a full pic when it doesn't have such a dork factor!

Here is my B-67 on my Nishiki mixte, all dressed up for a holiday ride in 2006 (and yes, the bike is wearing a feather boa as well):

I have a Team Pro on my Puch now but I haven't taken a photo yet.

That is so cool! That saddle served me well for a few thousand miles- so fun to see it still being enjoyed by someone else!

Your new bike looks gorgeous with it.

this puts me off topic, but I also sold a Terry and a Specialized MTB saddle to TE gals. I wonder if they are still being ridden.

I guess I should take a picture of my husband's cannondale MTB with the Brooks Swift on it.

OK, that settles it: after I pay off my bike's moustache bar conversion, I am slappin' a B-67 on there!

**KnottedYet** · 04-14-2008, 07:18 PM

my moustache bar conversion bike has a B67.... it's a beautiful thing.

I have a feeling my bike is going to be eerily similar to yours when I'm through with it! (Although I'm thinkin' about going spring-less with a B-68 -- don't want to be too much of a copycat.

)

my moldy old brooks... it's literally rotting off of my bicycle. good times. (it came with the frame and i haven't replaced it yet.)
