I wondered if anyone else was experiencing similar issues with this design seat? Posture is fine, a really comfortable seat apart from the experience described.
Sounds like piriformis syndrome. Tilt the front of ur seat dwn a little bit to prevent ur posterior hip from rubbing that uncomfortable stitching. It will seem weird at first, but is actually better for ur spine in the long run as it will force ur abs and low back muscles to stay active.
