Thanks for the recommendations. I've talked to Mean City Cycles. I'm going to let them modify my stock seat & see how it goes. Can't beat the price either. They must be good, because I couldn't get an appointment till September 10th.

I bought the Hammock seat about 6 months ago and have 5,000 miles on it now. I love the seat, the best thing I can say about it is I no longer think about my sore butt on trips.
