It this fits you, then great. I honestly think that leather saddle probably is a bit more comfortable than rubber C17. Personally I would probably go with a tad wider B67... Now the question is - would I risk at least £80-90-100+ to find out? But back in a day I had a bicycle with leather saddle (was not Brooks) and it was very comfy, a bit on firm side, but lasted a lifetime without any maintenance. Another think is leather saddle is a bit on heavier side (at least cheaper non -titanium version). Sure I would prefer comfort over the weight, but little by little weight adds up... There is a certain point of weight why I bought Brompton over brand XYZ.We had serious depreciation of Turkish Lira and there is still some stock which was imported under previous rate of exchange with very attractive prices.
Couldn't resist to order another Brooks saddle today. Decided to keep my flame laquer all black except the frame and rivets, so ordered B17 Special Titanium black. It's 410gr, about a 100gr lighter than B17.
