I actually like having a light version of a great Brooks saddle but these 
are too narrow for my taste.  I ride Brooks for the ride quality and take a 
hit on the weight because of that.  I believe most people here use smart 
parts that they like and deal with the weight disadvantage. If they made a 
carbon version of the C15 or C17 I would easily choose them over the 
standard version.  Why not have the comfortable saddle WITH a reduced 
weight. I would love to have an incredibly useful bike that could be 
brought down a pound or two.  And I understand the "lose 2 pounds off of 
the engine" argument and agree with it BUT if it's the same saddle quality 
wise and comfort I would pick the lighter one.  I assume the counter 
argument will be that the carbon rails are destined to fail but I myself 
wouldn't think it would be an issue.
