I'm kind of glad there aren't absolute answers like 8,342 or Boise, ID. because that wouldn't be nearly as interesting or enjoyable as the back and forth. I'm going to give the stock saddle a go but if I decide to replace it I may try a Brooks and if anyone wonders why I spent 1/3 of the price of the bike on the saddle that will just give them something to do.
And you can just hope they are enjoying it!
