What bike is it for? The Brooks website and the Lovely Bicycle link below both suggest that the B17 is more for racing/touring bikes whereas the B68 is for bikes where the rider has a more upright position. This might need to be a factor in your decision. Also, see if there are any Pashley dealers near you, as I think all Pashleys come with a Brooks saddle of one sort or another and you'd be able to sit on one. There's a very helpful description of Brooks Saddles on
LovelyBicycle.
edited to correct.
It is a Trek 7.6 FX. It isnt upright but it isnt hunched down, either. The center to center measurement was 135. Didn't measure the outer. So, in light of all that, now what?
