My road bike fit perfectly, except that the saddle wasn't bottom friendly. Since I've installed a new saddle (which is great for my bottom) I've been getting lower back pain after about half an hour of riding. The change of seat is obviously the problem. What should I do? Move it forward, back? Tilt up or down (it's level now). Higher? Lower?

Please don't tell me to use a different seat, I have a variety of butt problems and this seat solves them all.

Thanks!
