Definitely check seat tilt. I put a new Adamo seat for my wife a week ago, after a few adjustments during the rides she started complaining about pain and numbness in her hands something that never happened before. Today I removed all tilt and zero pain or numbness as well as her butt pain is gone. Albeit was only a 23 mile ride but she said a world of difference.
