Here are the pics to compare. The B-67 vs. Team Pro S. The Team Pro has much more ramp angle, for lack of better terms, where your sit bones rest in. In contrast, it looks like the B-67 has you more perched on top.

That's for sure! The great thing about Bill and Diane at Wallingford is that they give you 6 months to figure out what you do and don't like, and they answer questions and really know the different saddles they sell. If one is uncomfortable, they can usually recommend another that will solve your particular problem.
They are a great resource. Too bad they left Seattle...

I cannot thank you all enough for sharing your wisdom. Today I ordered the b-67 from Wallbikes.![]()
I was so desperate to ride more comfortably today that I switched my bontrager out for the cheap, but wider seat on my son's mtn bike for a 26 miler today. ANd even though it was still pretty uncomfortable, it wasn't as bad as the bontrager.

I've been breaking in my Brooks b67 and I have to say, after a few hundred miles and some tweaking with the position, I really love it. I can finally get on my bike an don't even think about the saddle, it's a great feeling. Also, this is a sprung saddle and I have no problem with squeaking, I hear nary a peep,and then only when going over cobbles or bricks. It's fantastic.
I have the seat set all the way back on the rails, and sometimes I still feel like I need to push back (I seem to have a tendency to creep forward on the seat, which I attribute to the way my pelvis is tilted, not sure if that assumption is correct though) This is probably more of a bike fit issue than a saddle issue.
I can't thank you ladies enough for offering me your advice and sharing your wisdom!
