Amongst bicycle connoisseurs, the Lepper Primus is the Rolls Royce of bicycles. This is why this saddle is still in reasonably used condition, and after more than half a century this can still be used. The large springs are still working perfectly. A number is visible on the frame under the saddle. The leather does of course, show some cracks from drying out, after years of enjoyment, but can still be used. A beautiful and decorative piece in the man-cave of the bicycle enthusiast, or for a restoration project. Lepper is a Dutch manufacturer of bicycle components, and was originally a German company.
