Made in Canada. I had a Sekine years ago, would like another high end one.Immaculate!
That Raleigh factory was about 200 km from where I live. They closed it about a decade ago, I think. There's one they made there which I've been wanting patiently for. Raleigh Serengeti, Tange infinity tubing. I missed out on one a few years ago because I couldn't believe what I was seeing was realMade in Canada.

That is the way to do it. I got some great deals on brooks on KleinanzeigenI always buy used ones for 10-45€ and never had any issues. New? Never!
I did buy one that had seen a lot of wear and so it wasn't really ever able to accommodate my shape, tightening it up wouldn't lessen the dips. So you're probably right, best to go for relatively new looking ones/low milage.I have bought secondhand Brooks but i found you need to be careful or they are a torture instrument.
The springs creak which drive me mad. I sold a flyer because of that.I prefer the ones without springs as the rails on them have a greater distance to the leather so my butt doesn't touch the rails.
