I've just added a stem riser to my road bike after flipping the stem, getting a "professional" fitting and fiddling with the seat position failed to fix my back pain. It looks bloody ugly but so far so good - i managed to stand up straight with no pain after doing an 18 mile ride in about an hour. I don't get back pain on my tourer so I'm trying to give the road bike a more touring fit until my core is stronger (pilates!).
