Brooks Cambium

I realize saddles are completely subjective but I’m curious if some of you like Brooks Cambium on long rides and tours.

I tried a C15 a while ago and my butt didn’t like it. Specifically, the shape of the saddle between the area where the sitbones rest had a bump/rise that pushed into my perineum. The shape was like the letter C (turned 90 degrees). Everything else about it was very comfortable.

I picked up a C17 and because it’s wider, that bump isn’t bothering me. Sit bones go where they do, and the space between them is flat. It’s more like the letter D. One short ride seemed good. Going to try a 2hr ride tomorrow. If it’s really good I’ll keep it. And I’m hoping it would be good on the longest rides I usually do (and beyond as I work on increasing distance).
