Rumor has it that there are folks out there that can just put anything saddle-shaped on a bike and ride it. The width and the shape almost don't matter. I am not one of those people.
I used to be one of those guys that could ride any saddle (at least I thought I was). Now I have a more discriminating tush and it prefers a Brooks C17. I guess that came with age.
