RE: Ouch
Is there honestly that many positions you can get in on a bike? I wish I could sit different on my bike but I guess since I'm only 5"2 I have to reach for the handles and then that makes the rest of me lean up and that leaves your butt all hiked up in the back.... you don't see guys riding with their booties all up in the air...... anywho good luck with getting comfy on your bike, how can you have fun if your all sore during the ride

RE: Ouch
if my riding posture is bad my wrist will get a little sore - the only time my *** suffered was when i stopped in at lowes on the way home to get a 50# bag of mortar, stuck it in my backpack then proceeded to get stuck in traffic from an accident that involved my inching along every minute or so for 45 minutes with the extra 50# on my back.

I third the "trust your ride". The first couple weeks on the new bike my back would hurt and my right hand would cramp. Wasn't till later that I relized I was so tense that I washunching over and I had a death grip on the throttle. Next time I relaxed a bit, thought about my posture and things were much much better
