I’m looking for advice finding a new saddle for my bike. It’s a flat bar gravel bike and I’ve got sit bones around 138mm. My current saddle is alright, but I get pretty sore on rougher terrain. I’m looking into the Brooks B17 and C17, as well as the WTB Gravelier. Any suggestions or advice?
I have a B17 on my commuter with drop bars and I love it. Make sure to put proof hide on it and let it sit overnight before you ride on it. C17 may give you more cushion though

I bought a charge spoon saddle and it’s been amazing so far. I’ve ridden it for months and just did a 200 mile mini tour on it and had absolutely no pain what so ever. Plus they cost like £25. I know a lot of people love them and the are like 75% cheaper than a Brooke’s and come in loads of colours
