Subject: [CR]Brooks B17 Sprinter

Hi guys,

I have a few old (1940s) track bikes, one of which has a Brooks B17 Sprinter saddle, while the other two have equally narrow Mansfield saddles.

One of the Mansfield saddles is probably useable, but the leather on the other two has deteriorated. I note that Brooks still make the B17, as well as the B17N. However I see no mention of the B17 Sprinter... Is it vaguely possible to get a couple of these? Could I get my existing B17 sprinter recovered? Will it cost me the earth to do?

Regards,
