I've put a wedge of firm sofa foam in that bend and cures the problem. I'm just not fond of the stock foam that comes on the bike. After awhile you start to feel those frame rails.

Ideally I would like to find a carbon seat that only has the curve at the bottom to catch your butt without any curve at the top. That or a seat long enough for someone nearly 6'4".

I've heard some good things about Zotefoam with the only drawback being breathability which I can live with if it is ventilated. Any suggestions about locating a seat as I've described or whether or not Zotefoam will work with the Euromesh? I saw fairly inexpensive carbon seats on Ebay. Anyone know about those? How about a number of aftermarked seat manufacturers? Where can I see any photos of your seat Don? I just might be interested.
