Check out the Brooks Swift Eroica

Created by Giancarlo Brocci in 1997, the first Eroica event took a group of 92 cyclists along the iconic white roads of Tuscany. Riders were atop classic steel bikes and dressed in clothing from cycling’s golden age, and the ride and concept slowly developed into a worldwide phenomenon.

This year marks two and a half decades of Eroica, and Brooks England—a longtime supporter of the events—is commemorating the occasion with this gorgeous Eroica edition Swift saddle. It’s the same classic narrow leather racing saddle with hand-hammered copper rivets but features a unique and beautiful laster-etched “XXV” design, paying homage to Eroica’s milestone. Just 100 pieces are available.

While they last, the Swift Eroica saddles are available for £175 ($200) at BrooksEngland.com. If you missed it, be sure to check out our recent visit to the Brooks England factory in the UK, linked below.
