    It took a while to figure out how to share the detail - it is absolutely the B68.

    Process: I set a piece of paper on my office chair, sat for a good long while & built up sit bone impressions. X marks the spot - also circled where the sit bone area left a nice round indent.

    The first picture should show the overlay when I compare that to the brooks, and to my other too-narrow saddle, where I'm supported by the A bones, not B.

    On the brooks, the center of the sit bones are one fingernail width in from the furthest outside rivet. Is this enough? I tried to draw lines to intersect where the center of the sit bone would hit in the smaller brooks image. Moving front to back on that saddle would e limited to the green line which I measure out to 2" in total -but most of it is hard from the curl of the leather or the pomel underneith.
