That's exactly how a Concor should be setup though. A seat that ramps up at the back is a different animal than something board flat pointed at the hub!

If I put a level on this saddle tail to tip and adjusted accordingly my nuts would be destroyed. As it is, I can ride in the drops all day comfortably with a comfortable amount of weight on my hands:



That said there is a point where it just becomes jackass looking and impossible for it to be comfortable even though people claim it is. What I particularly hate is the saddle nose pointed way down and the hoods rotated up towards the sky. Some people don't know what they're doing and apparently don't care to learn.
