being a newbie.. i'm going through this right now!

tried it pretty much level.. hurt...

tried it tilted down... i slid forward and hurt...

have it perfectly level now and i still seem to hury...

however i'm not sure if the hurt is still from the seat of residual from another position...

i have the stock dolce saddle on my elite bike.. so it has the slit and all...

pain is not good
