I have ridden it in great comfort on it for the last year. Both cycling 
shorts and regular shorts and pants.

Suddenly, I am getting some annoying perennial pressure and I am out of 
ideas as to what to do about it. More so with cycling shorts, and feels 
better when just regular pants.

It started the day after a 27-mile light rain ride, but the saddle didn't 
get wet as I had a bag on it. I figured that maybe the wet atmosphere of 
the long ride made the leather change a little. But the leather looks the 
same.  I have fenders, so there shouldn't have been spray from the tires, 
either. I tensioned the saddle ever so gently.
The saddle has been getting loose feeling anyway over the last few months 
and readily bows to thumb pressure testing, though it always felt great to 
ride. But tensioning didn;t make a noticeable diff as far as I can tell.

So I checked it out, and the saddle height went down a smidge and the angle 
changed about .6 degrees, nose up,  over the last year from the original 
set up. I readjusted everything back to where it was. Better, but not 
perfect like before.

I can't think of what else it could be. The bike is all set up the same, as 
far as I can tell. My only last thought as to what it might be:

*Maybe the Flyer springs don't stand as tall after a year of riding and so 
the saddle need to have the nose lowered more than normal to get the angle 
right? Do the springs lose a little height after a while that the back end 
of the saddle wouldn't be as high even though I got the angle back to where 
it was all along?*

Anyone have any ideas or know what causes this?
