I think when Espen was talking about removing material from the seat, he was thinking of relieving pressure, a bit like the groove in the middle of many 'anatomical' bicycle seats, which remove pressure from the perineal nerves (leading to numb willy syndrome). It's certainly a recognised way of dealing with pressure discomfort, and simply making the seat softer sometimes makes things worse, not better.

But everyone's @rse is different, and much of the time it's a case of ... I was going to say 'suck it and see', but maybe I won't.
