It seems that the RDL seat would fix that. I can deal with its appearance, but I am not interested in raising the seat height. Not because I am too short, but because I like sitting as low into the bike as possible.

Reading through old threads, It would seem that all RDL seats are taller than stock. I would like one that is shorter than stock. Will it still work? I am hoping that it is not just a matter of adding more cushion that makes the RDL more comfortable.

Any feedback on this? Anyone have a shorter than stock RDL? TIA!
RDL says it adds an inch to an inch and a half but maybe they can contour the seat to not add such a large depth to it or at most duplicate the stock depth. I'd give them a call they are really great people to deal with.
