Vintage Brooks Professional "Pre Softened" Black Leather Road Bike Saddle

We're a mission-driven bike shop based in Colorado. Every sale helps refurbish and donate bikes to those in need through Bicycles for Humanity Colorado. Each item has been professionally inspected, thoroughly cleaned, carefully refurbished, and is ready for immediate use.

The Brooks Professional is one of the most iconic and celebrated leather saddles ever made, trusted by racers and touring cyclists alike for decades. This example features the classic narrow racing profile with copper rivets, the distinctive hammered Brooks nose plate, and a supple black leather top that shows the characteristic patina of a well-loved saddle. The underside is clearly stamped 'Brooks Professional,' confirming its authenticity. The leather appears in good shape with normal age-related markings, and the copper rivets show light oxidation consistent with honest use — all hallmarks of a saddle that has been ridden and cared for. The steel rail cradle is intact and the tension bolt at the nose is present. This is an excellent choice for the vintage road or randonneuring build, or for any rider who wants a genuinely classic Brooks that has already done the hard work of breaking in.

Every item from Traveling Ground is fully refurbished, professionally inspected, and ships next business day.
