Brooks Saddles

[KnottedYet]

B68, B67, or B66

"Upright" really isn't a good category for saddles, and it bugs me to see it being used because I think it drives women in the wrong directions when choosing saddles. Generally the part of the sit bones contacting the saddle are slightly farther apart the more upright (relatively posteriorly tilted) the pelvis is to the saddle. (so someone with a dramatic pubic rami to ischial tuberosity angle might be fine in an agressive position on a narrow saddle, but as they rotate the pelvis upward and shift posteriorly along the rami into an upright torso position they may need a wider saddle. Me, I have sits in the 180mm realm, and I just need a wider saddle regardless of position. I have B67 and B68 on my agressive bike, my "medium" utility bike, and my pretty darn upright promenade bike.)

It's really all about width of contact points, regardless of position. Position doesn't matter, contact points do.

B68 is T-shaped. B17 is pear. (there's a great topview on wallbike.com that dramatically illustrates the T/pear difference)

With a 160mm outside measurement, you would likely be landing on the cantle plate of a B17.

You sound like a very good candidate for a B68.
