Saddle selection is important, after I received my saddle one of the broshures incuded said that my b-17 was for touring or more upright riding style, well it just so happens that this is exactly what I was looking for. But did not realize that was the case. Highly suggest doing research for what saddle is best for intended riding. The pro model and others are for more leaned over riding styles. Be sure of what your riding needs are. I was fortunate to blindly pick the proper saddle. Go to their website or ask and see which saddle suits your needs.

I will say that given the saddle that I chose, that improvements were immediate and drastic, much more pleasureable, and expect to get better.

hmmm ... here's hoping my standard B17 works for my style of riding - road bike with bars raised a bit higher than a standard road bike

Made a slight adjustment today while on a 20 mile ride, also added another coat of proofide; Recently purchased a new riding short, all improvements are paying off. don`t skimp on the shorts. added a new bike computer with cadence, wired, and it helped me to realize my pace. Found out that gears are very important, big learning curve. all input greatly appreciated.

So mine's got about 400 miles on it now and is starting to feel a little loose. If I push down on the rear of the saddle with my hand there is noticeable deflection. Could it be time to stop avoiding the temptation?
