I can't ride with saddle angled up. As most women, it's leveled or tilted slightly down.
I have slr leveled.
Might try some different angles (though i tried few different set ups already) when i get a new one (someone borrowed mine and crashed it riding into the back of the car:)
I'm without a saddle right now, so decided to try couple more before going back to slr.
Maybe i find something better.
It's not *really *angled up though. It's more a case of subtly adjusting which part of the saddle top is the flat part (even 'flat' saddles aren't totally flat, especially when sat upon).
The trouble with setting a lot of saddles 'flat' is that it makes the sitbone bearing area point ever so slightly downwards, causing you to roll more onto your perineum, from which stems numbness.
These are fairly minute, and almost imperceptible changes, and it's a reason why 1-bolt notched clamp seatposts are often impractical.
