After researching what size/shape characteristics are supposed to make a bike seat comfortable I had a local upholsterer do a seat mod to my specifications: reduce/eliminate forward slope of seat (ball breaker) by adding adding 1" padding at front of seat and tapering back to 0" at the back of the seat; add width in the sitting area to increase area to distribute weight on; remove 'crown' and make seat top flat for better weight distribution; add gel insert in sitting area with insulation layer to prevent/reduce heat build up; add 2" soft 'relief channel' (softer foam inserted) down middle of seat from back edge to about 5" from front to provide cushion for perineal area. See photos below. I'll post a review when I've had a chance to take it on a nice long ride. Cheers
