?? This isn't a suffering competition, there's no reason not to be comfortable.. My B17 was fine out of the box, or at least after a little bit of messing around with it on the trainer, and is now super comfortable a couple years in. In fact, it almost seems a little too soft for me now, and I'm far less than 24,000km. My wife rides a B68 - likewise, comfortable almost right away.
