How did you get your bike the most comfortable it has ever been for you? (self.bicycles)

Just bought my first road bike and put it on a trainer for the winter. Still tweaking the saddle and such for a more comfortable ride but I'm not there yet.

Bike fit and all helped, but I'd previously used a tutorial to do it myself and that was good enough.

What really helped was getting a comfortable saddle, Selle's TRK isn't expensive and other cyclists have laughed at how much of a "couch" it is, but I rode that sucker from San Francisco down to LA along PCH, and it wasn't my butt that got me stopping.
