Pic related: Where the frame broke (not my saddle) on my Brooks Professional. Brooks claimed the reason is I didn't tension the leather (which didn't need tensioning and can't be the reason for failure at this spot anyway).
Contacted Brooks and told them I don't agree. Never heard from them again.
From my point of view the material is crap. It shouldn't fail at this point. Also: Brooks chickened out of the warranty because of a technicality (the tensioning screw has not been turned - this automatically voids the warranty).
As I've said, do some research. This is not an uncommon problem.
No, I weigh around 180 lbs.
