Brooks vintage leather bicycle saddle from 1955 in original condition with twin rear coil springs, located in the Netherlands.
Description from the seller
Original Brooks leather bicycle saddle, handcrafted in England and fitted with the characteristic twin rear coil springs and original Brooks nameplate.
This is an authentic vintage saddle with an attractive aged patina, making it suitable for collectors of classic bicycles, cycling memorabilia or high-quality restoration projects. The leather has developed a beautiful natural character over decades of use while retaining its original shape.
The saddle remains complete, including the original steel frame, twin springs, mounting hardware and Brooks badge. The leather is dry but still firm and structurally sound. It shows honest signs of age, including surface wear, natural craquelé and a few small cracks consistent with long-term use. The metal components display light surface oxidation and age-related wear.
The saddle has not been restored or refinished, preserving its authentic vintage appearance.
