In referring back to the original post I too had a similar dilemma. I ride a Sam with an Albatross and a Appaloosa with Billie's. I had a B-17 on both. I have made a choice to not use animal products so I decided to sell the leather Brooks. I since tried replacing them with every variation of the Cambium series in the carved variety but just did not agree with any of them. For me the takeaway is this. Nobody other than you can decide which saddle is right for you. The only way to know is to try a variety of choices until you find one that works with you anatomy. I would suggest focusing on saddle shape as a primary factor. If you are looking for choices try to find some with different shapes. At the advice of my friend James @Analog cycles I settled on a WTB SST that they stopped making the mid 90's. Luckily for me they made these by the gazillions so there are a ton to choose from hanging around on eBay. I wouldn't have expected this saddle to be "the one" but it goes to show you that you have to try a variety before finding what works for YOU. Good luck in your search.
