Edit: don't forget the longer you are in the saddle the more things will change. A saddle thats ok for 40 miles might be torture for 80. Also 1 or 2 degrees of tilt can be the difference between heaven and hell.
bah humbug may be sending me a saddle soon, it would be sweet if that fixed the problem. I havnt thought about changing the tilt yet. Thought I would try the new one, and if that didn’t help then off to get fit. I don’t know of any good fitters in the area. I was just gunna head over to trek, I think it’s roughly 75 bucks for a fit.
