4th to approve the Titanico X. I have ridden extensively (at 290lbs) the B17 and the Titanico X. Both saddles are very comfy for me and I noticed the difference immediately with the Titanico X and after a few rides on the Brooks B17. Of the two, I slightly prefer the 'X' and that's just because it looks more 'sporty' on my road bike than the B17.
However, both saddles need 'saddle sauce' to keep them waterproofed etc.
