It's worth riding. Try a brooks and you'll never go back to one of those
plastic "numnutters". Apply some leather treatment and ride it. If you dont
want it I'll give you $5.

And you're the guy that rides a steel frame.

Come on, get with the times. Brooks is dead.

I like the looks of a 135 gram Sella Italia SLR
on my oversized AL frame.

Guys like me junked the cowhide two decades ago!

See just how far out of it you are?

But think of it more in art and aesthetics terms.

If the bike is of the proper color or color combination, addition of
a Brooks in "honey" can be a real aesthetic addition to the bike.

I've found the appearance of my dark forest green Trek 520 is much
enhanced with the addition of the honey brown Brooks. It's a real
style statement that a person with such sensitivities as yourself
can much appreciate, and make even better by the knowledge that many
others are incapable of perceiving the improvement!

And of course, the heavier saddle can be useful for training purposes.
Get back on your lightweight aluminum and plastic mount and you fly!
