It is a Felt Z5, 58cm. I absolutely love it so far, but I am having trouble adjusting to the geometry and getting everything feeling just right.
To be frank, my gentlemanly bits go numb if I ride in the wrong position for a while, generally on climbs. I think part of this is due to needing more core strength to keep myself in a proper spot on my saddle.
But in any case, today is gorgeous out, perfect riding day. Here's a link to my ride in case you want to see how slow I went: http://www.strava.com/activities/132698162
I call that sleepy wiener syndrome (SWS). I too was afflicted. When I had it, my saddle was too high up, and too far forward... Pop in to the shop that sold it to you, and have them break out the protractors.
Do that sooner than later. If you let SWS go on for too long, it could lead to rather annoying issues down there.
Thanks for the advice! I've been back a few times to get all sorts of adjustments made. We're all of the thought that it may come down to a new saddle. I'm looking into a few options to find which would be best/which has a good return policy if it doesn't feel right.
