An ecological approach to long-lasting comfort, the C17 Special Recycled Nylon saddle combines recycled, sustainable and biodegradable materials with classic Brooks design and ride quality.
Our Cambium saddles are made from flexible natural rubber, harvested from trees.
Designed to absorb shocks and smooth out the ride.
Provides natural comfort for the duration of the ride in all conditions, over all terrain, performing consistently over time and through constant use.
Rubber is a natural substance that reacts to and follows the rider's movements.
Ride with nature on our most-sustainable Cambium bike saddle to date: the C17 Special Recycled Nylon. Adopting an ecological approach to saddle construction, our latest C17 Special utilises earth-friendly materials throughout. Starting with the nylon top, recycled fibres eliminate the need for new materials while reducing waste, combined with natural rubber for wet-weather protection and comfort. One of the biggest innovations comes in the form of Liquid Wood, an innovative, 100% biodegradable biopolymer used to create the nosepiece and saddle backplate. All mounted on stainless steel rails with aluminium rivets for a lifetime of hard use, more sustainable cycling starts by taking a seat.
This Cambium Saddle is manufactured in Italy and guaranteed against defects in materials or workmanship for 2 years from the date of purchase.
Cambium saddles are made from vulcanised natural rubber for flexible performance when riding, reducing shocks and vibrations and offering the rider improved road feel over traditional foam or gel saddles. This construction of the Cambium mimics the leather saddle construction and therefore offers a similar “hammock” comfort. Cambium is also maintenance free, meaning you do not need to adjust saddle tension. Likewise, the material we use will not be affected by rain. Cambium saddles are also available in a carved version for riders who seek to reduce pressure on the perineum or desire a more flexible saddle.
With the cambium range we suggest to check your rivets to see if they are still tight. Over time, due to the vibrations from the road the rivets can loosen, though this is a seldom occurrence. Remember these saddles are hand assembled in the factory, which means all maintenance can be done by hand.
A creaking noise from your saddle likely means that the nose rails are rubbing somewhere on the rubber top. This can be alleviated with a small dab of grease. Additionally, a noise can be made where the rails meet the back plate by the little black rubber plug. In this case the saddle could be reassembled and a small amount of grease applied at the contact points.
