Awesome Saddles. I own two of them in addition to having owned multiple brooks saddles; B17 special, Champion flyer, 2 Colts, Cambium, Team Pro and B15 swallow. Only the Colt Saddle is the one that comes close to the Berthoud Aspin in terms of comfort but, the leather is harder than the Aspin. You can see them being made softer in this video and for me, having already tried the harder saddles from brooks. The Aspin were wonderful straight from the box. I've gave up my brooks saddles except for the Colts and the Champion but, my Aspin mounted to my Soma DC DC is the one that is the most comfortable and is my Favorite. If you're not racing but spend more than 7 hours on your bike per week then try a Berthoud.

Love seeing the process with combination of machine precision and human touch along the way.
Amazing process! Great to see how it happens.
Well done. Makes me want to buy one, which is what I'm sure they intended.
Wow. Just wow.
