I asked the question because I love my B17 Imperial. I have always loved my Standard B17 but since I got my Imperial I just haven't been able to look at the other saddles in the same way. It's not that the standards are uncomfortable at all, far from it, it's just that the Imperial is so good...
Rather than replace them with what I want and have to wear in new saddles, I think I'll have a go at cutting them.
Thanks for the responses.
