On two bikes I have the B17 standard, which I have loved from the first mile. On my "road" bike that I use for group rides, I have a B17 Champion Special, which took a few miles to be completely comfortable, but it felt pretty good to start. It also took me about 5 saddles to figure out that the Brooks B17 was my saddle. The second B17 standard I bought from a friend that hated it, and I have another friend that has one and took it off after 200 miles or so - he also hated it.

Saddles are very personal - one saddle is not for everyone. Unfortunately you have to try a few before you find one that you love.
