Good advice and many good choices already given. I just wanted to say no matter what you buy, it will take many adjustments to get everything just right. I adjusted my seat height 3 times as well as the forward /back position a few times. Also adjusted everything on the handlebars a couple times (shifter position, hand grip position, brakes position, bar ends position). These adjustments may be minor (1/2 an inch here, 1/4 inch there) but can make a big difference in comfort. Its a lot of trial an error but worth it in the long run. Soreness in different muscles or your butt or your hands are a clue to make adjustments to see if it helps.
