I actually find that this saddle puts less pressure on sensitive areas than my other saddles. I think because its wider (which probably means I should replace my other saddles with wider ones). Its a little tougher on my sitz bones due to lack of any padding but generally its comfortable.
I rode today with nose up but it felt like I could go just a hair higher. I have been having trouble getting just right; seems it goes from being tilted nose up too far to being tilted too much the other way with minor adjustment but thats more to do with the campy seat post and clamp I am using.
