I've seen in the past, people complain that the new RANS seat caused their tailbone to ache, this
happened to me recently, but I didn't pay attention to the "cure" people suggested, I thought it had
something to do with trimming the foam? Any help would be appreciated.

tailbone, with the base of the wedge at the back of the seat. It's something like 1.75" wide by
3.5" long. Took ten minutes with a utility knife, including the time to remove and replace the seat
base cover.Tom Thompson

The only cure I found was to change to a mesh seat! Ben fox "bentbiker" <[email hidden]>
