I have two of these seats on two Brampton's I purchased recently. B17s with copper rivets and black rails. They are brand new and I cannot find any other info or collaborations between the two companies. I'm thinking about keeping one and selling the other. I'm wondering if I should be riding them at all I have only seen one other person with them online.

You used to be able to order a Brompton new with a Brooks, I think it was a £70 option. Since Covid/Brexit though it’s not been a thing.
There was a period just after Brexit when you couldn’t get Brooks saddles in the UK, as they’re owned by an Italian company and sent to Italy to be packaged after being made in England. So they count/counted as an “import”!
Another person asked about this a few months ago, Brooks used to make branded Brompton saddles a long time ago it’s certainly not recent. I don’t think they’d be overly valuable either keep it for sentimental value or use it.
