it looks like that saddle has quite a lot of nose before the rails start (Brompton saddle with a hand grip?)
maybe you could look for a saddle with longer rails?
do you have a full side shot of the bike? is there any scope to move the bars further forward a bit?
I certainly wouldn't want to be sat on the saddle if you hit a pothole...
I had one of those terrible layback posts on a bmx in my youth, eventually it bent back so far that the seat was on the rear tyre.
