There is something very stylish about the "old school" steel framed tourer. I bought the frame about 20 years ago - it is made by M Steel in Newcastle - and built the bike up with Campagnolo components. It currently has a Campag triple chainset with Campag front and rear changers. The only saddle I could grace the frame with was a Brooks B17 (Honey) which compliments the leather straps of my Carradice Barley saddle bag really well. My next Brooks will be a Swift which will be used on my Folding bike - a Xootr (pronounced Zootr) Swift. I did try the Honey B17 on the Xootr but it looked out of place so a black Swift should blend better.
