Among the Brooks I have on my bikes, the Conquest is the only sprung saddle I own. Its profile is very similar to my Professional. I can hardly tell I'm sitting on a sprung saddle while it soaks up bumps. This saddle is far more effective than the Rockshox suspension seatpost I used to use on my Mtb a while back. The springs are stiff enough not to affect your pedalling as I used to get that 'pogo' effect with suspension posts. Here's the Conquest on my commuter.
