    All Brookes saddles will take the shape of your bottom over time (especially if you abuse them a little).
    The Team Pro is a classic saddle with a classic look, which will go well on a touring bike. I've got one and I am pretty happy (not the Ti version), but I would not recommend it for a race bike.

    The Swift is a lot more racey in its look and a lot more expensive too... but if you buy Brooks, cost is not the first criterium to choose, right?

    I have the swift and can confirm the previous post that it is a bit more racey than the team pro.

    I find it very comfortable and have zero complaints - other than it does not like getting wet.

    I have the standard chrome version and you can pick these up for c.£80 - I don't see the point of the Ti version as if you really care that much about weight you would not get a Brooks in the first place.
