I bought a KHS "Urban-X" commuter bike recently and I love it, except for the saddle. It got better with the proper adjustment, but I still just am not comfortable on it. So, after some research, I decided that for me the best choice would be a Brooks honey color 170mmx280mm (6.75"x11") "Champion Flyer" (sprung B17) and the best price I found was at Wallingford Bikes (wallbike.com) At $99 + $13 shipping (New Orleans to California) this was a much better price then I have seen anywhere else, even on used Ebay saddles.. they even give you a half price on the Brooks Proof leather dressing if you want it. When I get it and have time to try it out I'll report back with the results.

PS: From the Wallingford Bike site, where else are you going to get a 6 month, unconditional guarantee like this, quote:
" * 6 Month UNCONDITIONAL SATISFACTION GUARANTEE - new BROOKS saddles. Return your new saddle at any time within six-months of the ship date for a full refund of the price of the saddle. Shipping will not be refunded unless there is a manufacturing defect that would make the return a factory warranty issue."
