Hey, I'm a total Brooks convert. Having had the B-17s for ~300mi until it was ..uh... removed from my bike, and now happily breaking in a b-17 (oh yes, major difference between 'broke in' and 'not'... you wouldn't think so but... ) I'm thinking everyone should have one...
B*tch b*tch b*tch, though, they're awful slippery when they're new. Or maybe I'm just *that* happy to be back on my bike!
