As for too much forward tilt, it may look funny, but if I'm not sliding forward or being pushed onto the handlebars, perhaps it's not an issue.

It does seem that when you mess with one little thing that the whole fit gets screwed up. Been there for sure.

With things like this, I always start to wonder when things are getting up against the max or min adjustment if there isn't something else going on.

I guess not seeing you on this particular frame it would be hard to tell, but getting a fitter to take a peak wouldn't be a bad idea. Getting other eyes on the problem while you are on your bike would probably get you pretty close to where it needed to be and then you could adjust from there.

My other idea would be to give a Koobi a try as well. I would think that vis a vis prostate pressure, their relief channel is going to be similar to the ISM since it runs pretty much the whole length of the saddle. You could probably replace it without a lot of fooling around too.
