B.17s stopped working for me a couple of years ago and I switched to
Berthoud Aspins. I can't help with the "fore-aft hump" because my
saddles never developed ridges like that, but for sure the Berthoud
leather is much thicker and sturdier, and does not sag the way B.17s do.

I've been a Rivendell fan for years having owned 4 different bikes. I
used B-17 saddles for years, but with wear, as the area under my sit
bones would settle, the hump in the saddle( running for-aft) would
cause extreme discomfort. I just had to give up on Brooks. I have been
using a Secialized Phenom for about a year, but it's not so great on
longer rides like I remember my Brooks in the early years of
ownership. Has anyone with issues similar to mine switched over to a
Berthoud saddle and felt some improvement?
