Thanks for your remarks (and thanks for fixing my tags
)
Is this the saddle you're using?
And if so (or nearly so), is your complaint that it is too wide in the area around the letters "
zi"?
The limited length of the flat part of the rails, where the seat post attaches, is a common complaint about Brooks saddles. I'm rather puzzled that they haven't solved that. The reason they haven't, to be fair, is that this would require the rails to be wider; and this, in turn, would interfere with the skirt of the saddle; so they would have to make the whole thing wider, which would lead to your complaint about the Aliante. The solution might include a redesign of the seat post.
People also complain about the weight, of course. A Brooks saddle has a lot of steel in it.
