I've always found that raising the nose a degree or two helps. The only time I've had a B17 be

pain after the ride.
I did have a team pro that I could never get comfortable on no matter what, CV-6 has that one now.

I'm very anal about my saddle position (so to speak...). The position on this one is identical to my comfy-as-a-couch broken in B17. I think I've just got a soft bum...
