Anyone know anything about the company and saddles? All I know of the company is that it existed in Handsworth, Birmingham at some period of time, of the saddles I know there was the Club, Ace and Eclipse, I don't know what others. I've got a Club - see my flickr.

IIRC the Bath Road was a development of an Ideale design from France. It has an alloy frame that was prone to cracking (as was nearly all alloy parts).
I think Mansfield were viewed as '2nd tier' to Brooks and were a little cheaper. But certainly better regarded than Wrights saddles.0 -
Thanks, sounds like the B37 - a B17 with cracks
There seems to be less Mansfields around than other brands.
To anyone reading this do you have any info on Middlemore, Wrights, Leatheries, Lycett?
I nearly forgot, there's the Mansfield Sprinter.Bikes, saddles and stuff
