I careful maintained this saddle by always carrying the wrench in my jersey pocket and hitting it with the occasional proofide. Over nine months the saddle developed a great ride and nice patina.
Unfortunately tears started to propagate at the base where the leather turns in midsection.
I reported this issue to Brooks at the end of February (no response little over a month) and received back a re-topped saddle mid-May.
Just after two rides with the new re-topped saddle a small tear started in the same place.
I weigh a 173 pounds and Brooks's response "this was not the right saddle for me because it's for riders that weigh 148 pounds or less."
I have never seen in any descriptions of the Swallow having a weight limit. I guess you need ESP to ride a Swallow or just assume it's a saddle for small children.

簡單講是這位體重173磅(78kg)的騎士說他在有保養也有經常用專用工具調整(問題是出在這裡嗎?)B15坐墊。
但坐墊側面下方(皮由窄轉寬)出現開裂。
聯絡原廠等了一個多月之後收到了重新張貼表皮的坐墊。
但騎了兩趟車之後新坐墊相同的地方又破了。
詢問原廠後收到的回應是這些坐墊只適合148磅(67公斤)以下的人使用。
接下來去查原廠資料,確實沒看到適用的重量限制(如果有人找到的話方便提供嗎?)
不過有原廠推薦適合重度使用的款式只有三種
B33, B135 and B190
都是彈簧款。
想問問B15系有沒有超過80KG騎士的使用經驗可以分享?
或是有什麼皮的款式會比較耐高體重?
