Looking at a racer's bike can be instructive, because they do a lot of fine tweaking. Most of them have their seats level or tipped slightly up.
And I find that Brooks feel better when tipped up, especially if I'm slightly upright, such as with upright handlebars.
Glad you disagree. I don't think it makes any sense anatomically to tip the saddle up. Most guys I've seen have the saddle level or down. Maybe it is what you've come to be comfortable with, but the fact is that you're
sitting on your hips. As long as ones don't slide backwards or forwards or compress/sit on your perineum(much easier when the saddle is tilted up) then you'll be ok.
I should something that is very obvious... and that is that not every saddle fits the same.
