Question: if a seat works on one bike, will it probably work on a different bike?
Regarding your seat question...Not necessarily. I have a Brooks B-17 on my hybrid and my touring bike where both have relaxed to fairly upright positioning/geometry but I'm sure the B-17 would be excruciating (for me) on my road bike which has a more aggressive geometry. That said, I put a B-17 narrow on my single speed and had discomfort but when I put a stem riser on the bike the seat became less troublesome. I'll likely change it out next Spring for something more comfortable. FYI, there are some bike shops that will let you road test various saddles if you want to invest your time.
