5.0 out of 5 stars Riding on a Cloud, January 6, 2009
By Logan G. Barnett (Campbell, CA. USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I had read that these saddles take countless hours to break in. The second I sat on the Brooks, it was a world of difference from my old saddle. It felt so beautiful. The leather is stretched in such a way as to allow it to flex under the weight of my boot. It also allows my bum to slide back and forth reducing friction and adding to the comfort. I converted from a leather covered Selle San Marco Racing Saddle and I will never go back to the plastic throw away saddles after riding on the Brooks. I have had it for a month and it has only gotten better. One suggestion...angle the saddle up a bit so when you ride with no hands, you won't slide off the front.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect saddle for long distance riders, May 15, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Brooks Heritage Saddles B17 Imperial Saddle - Men's (Sports)
The Brooks B-17 Imperial is a perfect fit for the long distance rider. The leather does take a few weeks to get broken in, but even in the interim, the quality of ride is much higher over the stock saddles most bikes come equipped with. Once the leather forms to your "seat" the saddle becomes an afterthought. The price may cause some to pause, but if you spend more than two hours a ride in the saddle, and ride often, this saddle is well worth the investment.
