Little update - a couple of commutes on the saddle and I think it worth keeping.
It does need very careful adjustment of angle and fore/aft as you sit "in" the saddle much more than others - so it tends to hold you in one place.
The stiffness/lack of padding also makes you very aware of how you are sitting on it but isn't uncomfortable if you follow?
One slight issue however is that after sitting on it for a while, going to stand up I found that part of my chamois had wedged in the cutout slightly - not enough to cause a problem - but enough to notice a bit of resistance when standing up. The edges are all well finished - so its not catching on anything as far as I can tell. I might try some wax/polish on the inside of the cutout to see if that helps :p
