Wow! I have the Brydan as well.... But, that sits in my truck and never gets pulled out anymore. You will be amazed at what new saddles do. Rotation is what makes them so good now. That brydan has no rotation, just pulls from the center. I am using the Bashlin saddle X, and have the tree motion on order. I love the rotation of the X, and it looks like the motion will have much better rotation just by the looks of its bridge. Dont you run out of room with only four gear loops on the brydan? Also, that thing weighs a TON! But, the shoulder straps are nice.....
