Exactly. YYMV. If you're not sliding, you're probably dialed in.

I've seen some Brooks saddles on bikes with what I would consider too much tilt (if it were my bike). I ask the guy riding them, they say it's that way so they don't slide forward. Also, as the saddle ages, some adjust the tilt to accomodate.

Vive la difference!
