Brooks Flyer

The leather top is designed to break in and mold to your unique anatomy, becoming more comfortable the more you ride. It requires a bit of patience initially, but it eventually creates a custom fit that synthetic saddles simply cannot replicate.

The rear coil springs provide extra suspension, which helps dampen road vibrations and absorb bigger bumps. This makes the Flyer an excellent choice for touring, commuting, or riding on rougher surfaces where comfort is a priority.

Yes, the Flyer is specifically designed for long-distance comfort. The combination of the supportive leather top and the rear springs makes it a classic choice for cyclists spending many hours in the saddle.

While some riders prefer a cutout to relieve pressure, the Flyer relies on the natural support of the leather. Because the leather hammock-style construction distributes your weight evenly, many riders find they don't need a cutout for long-ride comfort.

At 850 grams, the Brooks Flyer is significantly heavier than modern performance saddles made from carbon or lightweight synthetics. You are trading weight for durability and the classic comfort of leather and steel.

The Flyer uses standard steel rails, which are compatible with almost all modern seatposts. If you have a standard clamp mechanism, this saddle will mount without any issues.
