Instead of the nice straight back of the existing rider, allow for a distance & angle in the riders back, so us poor old blokes can be better modeled.

Curved back
Thanks for the suggestion. That is a good idea. Just to be clear, when you speak of distance, I guess you mean the distance that the back might be deflected from straight?
You do currently have the option to enter a distance for the back in terms of the overall length of the torso. That would be the TR measurement shown below. You can also change the angle by dragging the Crouch slider.

correct!
I have used TR & Crouch as best I can. I took a photo of myself on the bike & was attempting to overlay the CAD model, but much to my horror realized my back is essentially just two straight sections with a single bend in the middle.
