Brooks B68 and B68S

He loves it because it feels like the brooks but is WATERPROOF.
and since he likes to be in the saddlle for HOURS (like 24 hours) he has already ruined 1 brooks.

The pear-shape of the Anatomica would kill me, and so would the cut-out. Funny how once you find the perfect saddle, nothing else will do!

It's so cute how your DH's sitbone dimples show up in that saddle, Mimi! It is obviously a very nice fit on him!

Emily! that saddle is off the website! My DH's saddle is actually red.

Oh, that's funny! They have a dimpled saddle in their ad! I wonder if they come that way, for your sitbones to just fit right into (and if they don't fit....hmmmmm???)

Thanks for the clarification!

I read somewhere on their site that the saddles come pre-dimpled.

I'll stick with the orginal: Brooks. Though Selle An-Atomica did do a nice job of duplicating a Brooks, gotta give them credit for that. Do they last 30 years like Mimi's B67? Does the S A-A give out where the leather is unsupported because of the cut-out?

I don't remember who said it, or where on the board it was, (maybe it was LisaSH?) but someone said if a saddle really fits you, you won't need a cut-out because the right saddle will keep you from weightbearing on the soft tissues anyway.

I think it was triskelion. Yeah, there's no cut outs on my car seat, my office chair, etc...
