A friend got a Cambrian, and after he concluded it was not for him, I gave it a try. I'll admit that I wasn't in cast-iron-butt shape when I gave it a try, but I found it was about as comfortable as I imagine using a granite saddle would be. Gave it back to my friend, and he sold it on the internet.

I have another rando friend that says his Cambrian feels as if he is sitting on a 2x4 if he rides it for more than about 17-miles. He has kept it, but uses it only for commuting the 12-or-so-miles to and from work.

All three of us are K-Hounds; the first friend mentioned and I are Mondial holdiers and the commuter user only needs 340-RUSA credit kms to Mondial. I mention this only to let you know that all three of us have ridden at least a little bit and perhaps our experiences have some validity.
