About bike seats in general, I figure that along with bike fit and shoes that are comfortable, having a seat that allows you to ride day after day without physical issues is super important.
I still come back to the new cost of one of my b17's five years ago, $100 basically, and here in Montreal bike stores, there are lots and lots of good bike seats that cost that, lots and really lots that cost $50, so I figure what the heck, maybe 50 bucks more than a so so quality seat that most likely be so so comfortable and maybe so so long lasting. I dont ride a huge amount but usually about 5000km per season, so 50 bucks or so isn't much, heck just by commuting by bike and not using my car, that 50 or whatever is saved easily.

I just bring the cost thing up simply because the diff to me isn't that much, and I'm careful with my money and don't buy stuff frivolously.

In the end tho, like you say, whatever seat works for you....I'm sure I'll try other ones too, and hopefully find others that work well.
