The thing I don't like about Brroks and Ideale saddles is pressure between my sit bones. Makes my dangly part go numb. Not a sensation I like. I have a NOS Ideale 90 saddle that's fairly comfy but doesn't compare to my Serfas Men's Reative Gel saddle. Now that's comfy! The older I get the more I value comfort. Just not into riding a Brooks or Ideale for a hundred miles to get it broken in.
