Pros

Super comfy saddle.
Don't have to worry about getting it wet.

Cons

Not sure if it will last as long as a leather Brooks.

Other Thoughts

I got this for a fat bike after falling in love with a B17 on another bike. I think I actually prefer the fit and feel of the C17 over the B17.

StarStarStarStarStar Best saddle I have ever ridden.

This saddle is great. Even during the break in period I could tell it was going to be far superior to any saddle I had ridden before. Every day for the first couple of weeks it got a little more comfortable. I'm regularly doing 3 hour rides with no discomfort.

StarStarStarStarStar Brooks Cambium

by
Ownership: a few weeks
Tech Knowledge: somewhat high

Pros

Brooks comfort, quality and reputation

Cons

Heavy, not as comfortable as my stock seat.

Other Thoughts

Usually, Brooks saddles are far and away the most comfortable saddles made. I've used a Brooks B17 on my touring bike for 10 years. When I bought a new gravel bike this Brooks saddle was my first purchase. But in my case, the stock WTB Volt saddle was more comfortable so I returned the Brooks.

StarStarStarStarStar Loving it

by
Ownership: a month
Tech Knowledge: average

Pros

Very comfortable.
Looks durable for adverse weather.
Great for commuter bike.

Cons

Carved design isn't ideal in rain (for obvious reasons) unless you have fenders.

Other Thoughts

Very happy with this saddle for my commuter bike. Doesn't look too flashy for a brooks saddle which is nice as well.
