There are a few Brooks bike saddles on sale on Amazon. They have had lower historic prices, but those were very short-lived and over a year ago.
  1. $70.22 NLA
    Style: Black Steel
    Size: Standard
    Color: Antique Brown
  2. $72.76 NLA
    Style: Standard
    Size: Standard
    Color: Honey
  3. $75.99 > Now $78.63
    Style: Standard
    Size: Standard
    Color: Black
There may be other variations on sale, but those are the three I was patient enough to find.

I personally use a black, standard b17 that I bought when it hit that historic low last year, and I love it. I do a TON of road and path riding, and never even think about my saddle or what's touching it, which is a great testimonial.

Pro tip: keep a shower cap in your saddle/trunk bag for rainy weather.

Cambium is also still on sale for $59.50 (C17, carved), but I can't speak to that material. It is more weather proof, though.:

Saddle is the proper name for what most people call a seat.

Good call on using a shower cap! I use a plastic bag and half-ass wrap it around the seatpost.

i see so many of these used. And people say they are so comfortable. What makes them "so" comfortable? Seems similarly shaped as any other seat.

Brooks are the best. The leather saddle conforms to your butt for perfect and comfortable rides. Squishy foam and gels of other saddles actually hurt over time.

Two downsides to leather saddles: they have to be broken in, so they're not for everyone and you might not even know right away if they'll ever be comfortable, plus they're heavy.

Unless I'm doing something wrong, or my Brooks is too vintage (bought in the late '70s), my butt must be an outlier. Maybe a thousand miles on it and no love. Nice and worn looking sitting on a shelf in the cellar.

Breaking-in is actually a benefit as it'll be customized for your rear end. Otherwise you ride on what some manufacturer thinks is generically comfortable for you, which is mostly not.

I don't see how anyone wouldn't know if something is comfortable or not. Wouldn't it be obvious if you feel comfortable? Heavy? Unless you're racing, it's minimal and worth the pluses.

My 14 year old Brooks is still doing great. But like other seats, may not be good for everyone.
