  1. I've had the same problem with the mesh seat back on a BikeE and Bacchetta Strada - the very center
    of my lower back (i.e. lumbar spinous processes) feels sore for many days after a ride. I've never
    seen this mentioned anywhere and was curious if anyone else experience this or have any suggestions?

    Thanks, Barry

  2. I noticed the same thing when I rented a Strada for a couple of days. Also, it happened to a friend
    I let ride it. It was noticeable after about 20 miles. It didn't last for more than an hour or two
    after riding. Maybe loosening the ties at the lower level would help.

  3. My wife had noted the same thing with both the Burley and Rans seat however, with time it went away.
    Perhaps the mesh loosened with time or she got use to it.

  4. I loosened the adjustable strap on my mesh seat and it works.
