I just got a C15, and although I only have a few miles on it, it seems like a winner as well.
As for colors, the have the denim version, a rust, the natural, slate and black, if I am recalling correctly!
+1 The C17 is doing well on my one bike with the bars barely below the seat, not a well worn B17 but closer than anything else I tried (Selle Anatomica, etc.). On bikes with lower bars I recommend the C15 as the ticket. There being water proof is a major advantage for me as I spend part of the year in Portland, OR. Do check your faux rivets, they can work out and be lost, I have found two Cambiums with loose screws
