New commuter/touring bike. Saddle advice needed!!!

[fidlfreek]

Hey ladies Welcome Miss Cherry, my new and awesome commuter build. She's a Surly 1X1 w/ custom cherry wood fenders, beautiful Nitto bars, and a B17 Brooks Saddle.

Now. I know that the B17 is a men's saddle but on my road bike I run a women's 140mm bontrager racing saddle, so I figure my sit bones are nearly narrow enough to ride a man's saddle. I am just not comfortable on the new bike. I feel like I need to sit up quite straight in order for the saddle to feel right (and yes, the nose is up but thats what the shop says is normal w/ a brooks) and that means I end up reaching too far to get to the bars and am ending up w/ a little back/neck pain. Boo! I already have a stubby little short stem on the thing and don't think we can mess w/ that much more. We've tried moving the seat forward with not a lot of effect.

Ideas? Different saddle maybe? Longer bars that come back towards me more?
