What they all said. The key to most Brooks saddles is to have the part where you sit mostly level. Don't worry about the 'break-in', it will happen regardless of the angle. I've found that by loosening the tension screw about 1/4 to 1/2 turn for the first few rides, and then tightening the tension screw to its' original setting will make the break-in quicker and more comfortable.
