I think we can all agree that everyone is different and therefore saddles vary as to suitability. I have B17s and B68s on my various bikes and all are set up with alt bars and pretty upright riding position. I'm perfectly fine with the B17 in that usage.. For the most part I don't have that painful period for breaking in unless I go longer miles on an outing. Also agreed - for me - the Cambium is too rounded and makes for a very uncomfortable saddle. I also enjoy the Berthoud Mente and the newer Albruis which both have the flat back portion. For my folders I use the WTB Sports Comfort saddle and have had good results.
