Once you've got your beautiful, handcrafted, genuine leather Brooks saddle mounted on the seat post of your bicycle, the next important step is learning how to take care of it.
Proofide
The indispensable tool you'll need for this is Proofide leather dressing. Proofide is made from 100% natural ingredients (tallow, cod oil, vegetable oil, paraffin wax, beeswax, and citronella oil) and specifically designed for the care of Brooks genuine leather saddles. Before riding your Brooks saddle, you should first apply a coat of Proofide to the underside of the saddle in order to make it water-resistant, then carefully, either with your finger or a soft cloth, apply a coat to the top of the saddle. Leave it to permeate and soften the leather overnight. Wipe off the excess Proofide, and your saddle is ready for riding.
Do not overuse Proofide. The above description is for the first time application only. To maintain the suppleness and water-resistance of your saddle, apply a coat of Proofide to the top of the saddle--allowing it to dry, and then polishing with a soft cloth--every 3 to 6 months. More frequent applications may be beneficial during the breaking in period, but be careful not to overdo it as using too much Proofide will cause the saddle leather to become over-soft and uncomfortable.
Never use Proofide on a wet saddle. If your saddle gets wet, allow it to dry naturally before treating it.
You should wear dark trousers or riding shorts when riding on a just-treated saddle to avoid staining your pants. Actually, the best way I've found of getting around the staining issue is to use a honey saddle, rather than one of the darker colors.
Tensioning Your Brooks Saddle
Brooks bicycle saddles come with a special wrench for tightening the tension bolt located at the nose of the saddle. The purpose of the tension bolt is to maintain the proper leather tension to prevent the saddle from sagging and becoming uncomfortable. Here too, the key is little and not too often. A good rule of thumb is one quarter turn (90 degrees) a year. Over tensioning your saddle can cause it to become warped and unrideable. Also, never tension a wet saddle.
Repairing Your Brooks Saddle
The only part of a Brooks saddle that is not replaceable is the leather top. All Brooks frame parts are available as spares and can be ordered from your local dealer. They will soon be available online from the Brooks England Ltd. website.
Brooks bicycle saddles require a little more care than saddles made from synthetic materials, but I've never heard anyone express regrets for having bought one. This fact is undoubtedly due to the irreproachable quality of their craftsmanship and their attention to detail--the leather used is absolutely the best obtainable, and each saddle top is cut by a skilled and dedicated craftsman upholding over 100 years of experience and tradition.

The Correct Bike Seat Height
Modern bicycles have a lot of different parts; tires, inner tubes, spokes, rims, tire arms, frame, brakes, mud guards, pedals, handle bars, gears, gear shifters, chains, seat, and several accessory parts like water bottle holders, horns, bells, lights, lock holders, bike seat bags, reflectors, pedal straps, speedometers, odometers, and really just about anything you can think of.
One of the more important parts of a bike, for both your safety and you comfort, is the seat. In addition to it's being comfortable to sit on, it must also be fixed at the correct height for your body.
Setting the seat in it's proper place is very easy to do. The way to go about it is to rotate the pedals so that one of them is at the bottom of its rotation and then place you foot on the pedal and bend you knee to approximately a 25 to 30 degree angle. Then you adjust the seat so that the height you're sitting at matches that 25 - 30 degree angle on your knee. On the frame where the seat post goes into the frame, there is a clamp that is tightened to keep the seat at the desired height.
Sometimes, when biking in mountains or prolonged distance riding on the road, it is necessary to make adjustments to the seat to accommodate different riding situations. If you find yourself in these situations, it is good foresight to mark the seat post where it goes into the frame at the correct height for your body.
The most important reason to set your seat at the proper height for your body is because if the seat is too high or too low, you might find yourself straining your knees to give the pedals a full rotation.
For more information, click around on the internet and see what other information there is out there about correct bike seat height. Or, you could go down to your local bike shop and ask the mechanic a few question.
