For $30 at Amazon it can't be beat. Just my opinion of course.
The "severe" nose up angle is not necessary and was mos likely the source of your issues. If the Brooks is adjusted properly, and that doesn't necessarily entail a "severe" nose up angle, it will be comfortable and your won't slide forward. Mine is not noticeably nose up and it is comfortable and I don't slide forward. That being said, the saddles you have now are very good.
