The Colt is already available.  Initial impressions I have heard are
that the saddle is very hard and not terribly comfortable.  Apparently
it is meant to be a race type saddle for the heavier rider.

I have one of the old Colts that I bout 10 years ago, when it looked like Brooks was going away forever. I think I paid $25 for it, discovered it in a bike shop in Cannon Falls MN into which my wife and I stopped randomly. I've never ridden it, it's on one of my wife's bikes. She seems to do OK with it although she prefers the Pro S saddles on her other bikes. It's narrow, about like a Pro or a B.17N. The leather is thick like the old Pros were; it would take some break-in but would end up being an old friend like my 34 year old Pro on my Riv (which I bout just after graduating from high school and it took about 2 years to fully break in. It is the most comfortable saddle I have ever ridden).
