You know, there were some things that I really liked about the brooks (mine was the B.17 Champion Special). I liked that it was smooth and I could move around on it easily. I just couldn't stay on it for long periods of time without the junk going numb. Actually, numbness would set in after only about 15 minutes and would last for a few hours after the ride.

500 miles was enough for me

Thanks for the reply though!
