I've lubricated and checked the fasteners and think this is a leather squeak not a rail to seat post or seat post to frame squeak. Has anyone here encountered such a problem? Any experience/tips on how to cure saddle squeak?
------- I ride a variety of (wider) Brooks saddles: B.17, B.67, etc. Each of them has developed squeaks occasionally. What works for me is a judicious application of Phil oil. (or WD-40 if I¹m in a big hurry ‹ yes, yes, I know it¹s not a "real" lubricant.) to the collection of metal parts in the nose of the saddle. Much more rarely, it's the seatpost/rails junctions, and then only with one-bolt seat posts. -- Jon "Papa" Grant, in Austin, Texas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
