Thanks for doing this Dave. I would have bet heavily that the standard B-17 would be more popular. Instead it looks like only 1 B-17 got a vote. Of course I have no room to argue as I didn't vote, and if I did I'd list 4 saddles depending on the bike: B-17 standard, Brooks Pro (either team or standard), Avocet Touring II and Concour. You learn something every day.

Of course everyone's *&& is different. For example I can't sit on Turbos for very long. Looks like I better try the Regal, though.
