I drank the kool-aid...
So I got a '73 Raleigh Sports with a Brooks B72 and fell in love with it. I just got in today a B17 for my Univega commuter and after about 50 miles, it's already one of the most comfy saddles I've ever been on - and that's with a fairly upright seating posture with North Roads a bit lower than the saddle. Awesome.

Next up is a Professional on the Raleigh Pro, and another B17 on the UO8. Awesome.
