I recently acquired the brooks bar tape and it looks / feels pretty sweet on the legend. The first ride will be this afternoon, but just based upon the bar tape, my interest in Brooks products is rising.
I have seen the B17, it looks huge and heavy and I am thinking something smaller and lighter is the ticket.

I see two models that are appealing. The swift seems to do its name justice and the swallow looks pretty swift. I don’t see the swallow in the current catalogue yet for whatever reason seems more appealing. Who has them and what do you think?
For reference, right now I am riding a specialized alias 143 and like it. It appears that all the Brooks saddles will be larger, though the swift and swallow the least massive increase.
