Pros: The only saddle that really fits - because it molds to your shape.
Cons: Some complain it's heavy, but any additional weight more than pays for itself in comfort. Break-in is another common gripe, but it's almost immediate. Therefore, there are really no "cons."
Time Used: More than 2 years
Comments: After trying a huge variety of plastic/gel/anatomic saddles, returning to a Brooks after more than a decade made me wonder, Why did I ever try anything else? There's a good reason the company is still making the same product after 100 years - and that people like me buy several, just in case.
Rating: 5
Recommendation: Yes I would recommend it to a friend

Pros: Dads got one and says it is very comfortable, easy fitting, extremely durable-fathers lasted 20 years. All rounder
Cons: heavy on todays standards, hurts butt until broken in.
Time Used: 6 Months
Comments: This saddle is rock solid! Only buy if lots of future use, Its not really worth the pain of breaking it in.
Rating: 4
Recommendation: No I would not recommend it to a friend
