    Acadia Park

    Hello, Are the carriage roads at acadia park currently open? I know the website says closed for Covid, but I have anecdotally read that the trails may be accessible. I have a long weekend next weekend (May 9), and would take the long drive up to Maine if the carriage road trails are freely...

    Why are Brooks Saddles known for comfort?

    Just an update that I have been riding my B17 special for a few weeks now and it is far more comfortable than any other saddle I have ridden.

    Why are Brooks Saddles known for comfort?

    Ride report of the B17 special: 40 miles, day 1 of saddle Must better than expected. I thought this would be hard as a rock, but I didn't really even notice it. It wasn't exactly comfortable, but after the ride my butt was much more comfortable than any foam or gel saddle I have ridden. My...

    Why are Brooks Saddles known for comfort?

    Alright so I got the B17 special and it showed up today. I put a thorough coating of proofide on the underside, used a micro brush to get every nook and cranny. I put a light layer on the top. I will leave that sitting for 24 hours then wipe off the top, but leave the underside as is. Anything...

    How tightly should I screw down the top cap?

    Changing out my stem and watching videos, most people say only to turn the allen key until you meet resistance, then maybe give in an extra 1/8 of a turn at the most. I did this, and don't feel any play in the headset (though this is my first time). My bike came assembled, and when I first...

    Why are Brooks Saddles known for comfort?

    Very Interesting, thanks - Once you broke in your regular B17, did you find that it shaped itself to your anatomical structure in a way that would make the cutout on the B17 Imperial redundant? I generally prefer saddles with a central cutout, however, it seems that the cutout on the B17...

    Why are Brooks Saddles known for comfort?

    I decided to order the B17. I didn't care for the ergon saddle I picked up. I am trying to decide between the B17 and the B17 Imperial. I do generally like the central cutout line on my saddles, which would lead me towards the Imperial, but I do not know if the regular B17 will naturally...

    At the risk of being arrogant by quoting my own post - I trued the wheel myself. Just used some zip ties around the frame as a substitute for a truing stand. Came out just fine. Was a lot easier than I expected...which is turning out to be the case for lots of these bike maintenance tasks I am...

    No power! Pedal assist not working.

    Thanks - ordered - how exactly do I use this stuff? I have a yamaha downtube mounted battery. Just a little dab on the battery terminals and the battery connectors on the frame? Do rub on with a brush? Do I wipe it off or just leave it on there?
