Feels better that way.




Actually, it's flatter than the picture looks. The saddle's turned backwards from normal orientation.

I did this due to a nasty bout of sciatica, lots of sitting, (actually bending of the leg lke you do while sitting is the root cause) makes it ache something bad. This allows me to straighten my leg. Oddly enough, cycling doesn't make it works (thank gawd!), probably because I'm always moving it, and it's straight at the bottom of the stroke-the nerve that causes the issue isn't pinched for long periods of time.
