For those of you who are devoted fans of Brooks saddles, and even if you’re not, here’s an exciting opportunity. Brooks England is about to release the first non-leather saddle in a very long time and one that is unlike any other on the market, the Cambium C17, and they’re inviting the first 100 cyclists to register on the Brooks England Cambium website to try one before the 17th June release.

From the Press Release:
The Cambium is made from a uniquely flexible natural rubber and organic cotton top, enhanced by a thin layer of structural textile for added resilience. This vulcanized waterproof top, which follows the rider’s movements, is immediately comfortable, maintenance-free, and highly abrasion-resistant to offer the longevity for which Brooks is legendary.

Working up to the 17th June release, Brooks is selecting a diverse group of 100 individuals worldwide to be the first to try the new saddle. Those selected are invited to try the saddle for a few months and share their feedback, which will be published on the Cambium website. The individuals selected will include men and women of differing body type and age, using a variety of bicycles, and importantly:

-33 will be long-time users of Brooks Leather Saddles.
-33 will be cyclists who have used both Brooks Leather Saddles and other saddles.
-34 will be cyclists who have never used a Brooks Leather Saddle.
