[QUOTE=Jeffbeerman2I like to keep my saddle mostly level, perhaps the nose is a couple mm's lower than the back, but mostly level. The way I have it mounted, it pretty much just supports me by my sit bones, like a saddle is supposed to.[/QUOTE]

It wouldn't surprise me if the slight downward angle of it was making you engage your hamstrings to keep you from sliding slightly forward. The engagement of your hamstrings would make you sore at your sit bones where they attach.

I suggest tilting the saddle up so the nose is a few mm above the back for a few days and seeing how that works.
