Agreed, I wish I hadn't gone through all that I did with my Brooks (B17CS & Swift). Both have been demoted to the dusty pile of "less than".
Just over 350 miles on my Clyde SA and it's comfier than than either Brooks...hands down.
FWIW, I also took a backup saddle (WTB Laser V) on a weeklong supported tour...I switched to it midweek.
Good luck on the ride billydonn!
