you will be sitting on it ..
all weather, rubber, rather than Leather, from
Brooks , Italy is the Cambium series C 19 is wider than the C17 ..
you just put it on and ride, never worry about rain getting the leather wet.. stretching and such...
Cannot say how your backside will like it since I don't have your bones..
their chart has 3 postures 45, 60 & 90 degree upright and the recommended saddle is wider as you sit up more ,
