In terms of where my saddle should be postioned (on the rails) where should it be inrelation to my bottom bracket? I'll try lowering the saddle tiny adjustments and see what happens.
Don't forget that the saddle moves backwards/forwards and tilts as well. Carry a tool with you, make small adjustments, and pay close attention to how it feels. It will probably take a number of rides to get it to the sweet spot. Out of curiosity, how much float do you have in your pedals? Some SPD's have only 4 degrees. If you need a bit more float than you have, that could also cause a lot of pain.
