    Ouch!!!! :eek: My butt hurts really bad after any ride on my 29er
    that's over like a mile! The seat is one of those KHs without the
    handle, and it gets really uncomfortable really fast. What should I
    do? I tried wearing padded bike shorts, but that didn't help much at
    all. Should I just go for the Gel saddle when they come out in
    November?

    Hollow out the foam and make it an airsaddle. Best thing for distance
    rides.

    Butt hurting or saddle soreness on inner thighs?

    my saddle is tilted backwards on my 29er
    it forces me to seat really to the back of the saddle and reduces much
    saddle soreness.
    try to tilt it

    The more you ride it, the more comfortable it gets.
    Practice. (Oh yeah, and padded cycle shorts/longs)

    put some washers between the seat and the top of the seat post, only on
    the front two seat bolts.

    you will see that this tilts the seat back nicely for an immediate
    improvement. If you need to tilt it even further, get a rail adapter.

    I bought a seat already on a post once and was suprised how tilted up
    it was...and shocked by how all of a sudden more comfortable riding
    was!
