I've aged through the saddle comfort gambit, starting with Unicanitor, 
later Concor, then Terry.  Now very happy with a high-mileage B-17 (added 
laces) on a moustache cockpit, which I would call semi-upright.

and a Selle Anatomica X on my drop-bar road bike

Both of these saddles I call Invisible in the comfort scheme - the Selle 
was that way out of the box, the Brooks took 800 miles to get that way.  

Tension is everything on the Brooks.  On a long, hard climb-training ride 
last month, I had made a subtle tension adjustment before the ride, added 
just a little more tension on a water stop during the ride, and immediately 
subtracted it at the next possible stop.

this one is OK, with a strong recommendation for Lepper

I've never sprung for a Bertoud or Lepper, but they always get the highest 
marks across the board to go with their price tags.  My buddy is also very 
fond of his 4 Bertoud saddles (though his wife hates hers)
