Adamo saddles

First of all, if this isn't the most touchy-feely part of triathlon, i don't know what is. Okay, wait, it's probably the chafage we get from those pesky trishorts and sometimes lame fitting running shorts we buy (hoping to look hotter than a supermodel-turned-pro-runner). Come to think of it, sometimes we gear ourselves up the same way we buy a pair of Manolo's, or any ill-fitting-too-expensive-to-wear-anywhere-but-on-your-living-room-carpet type shoes....  buy them and hope they'll 'grow on us'. course the only thing that grows are bunions...or worse, and you know what i'm talking about if you've had a bad saddle or shorts...

So to my review:

I love the Adamo saddle.

There it is. I had to look for a new one after my original saddle (on my original bike - of  6 years) had to go buh-bye... and i tried out four saddles. Ultimately saddles are so individualistic, all i can say is, try out a million of em. Get your seat bones measured and go ride. Give yourself time to get past the "ooh, this isn't so great" stage in the very beginning- when any saddle might feel a little uncomfortable - and then see how you feel.

For me, the Adamo took me through short rides on my trainer, to longer 75+ mile rides through hills and heat and sweat and grime.. ugh. Point being? I still sit my butt bones on it and dare i say, enjoy every ride.

Onward!
Tanya

Coach Crossbody Bags If you keep abreast of handbag updates, you can find the market flooded with replica handbags. In spite of this,few bag lovers are capable of telling authentic one from replica handbag. As a result, bag lovers spend a lot of money on Coach handbags for cheap handbag Coach Collection bags but just buy a replica bag. As a matter of fact, there are some ways available for us to distinguish replica bags from authentic handbags. Coach Handbags First, there is a price gap between replica handbag and real bag. Owing to the stric examination from relevant authorities, replica handbag manufactures are not willing to take the risk of selling their replica handbag in the market. And they rarely have advertising activities and the only for them to catch the sight of handbag buyers is to reduce the price to a level as low as possible.Sometimes the price could be as low as tens of dollars. Let us take hermes handbag for example, the hermes handbag may be labeled as hundreds of dollars at least. Therefore, when a handbag shop claim that their hermes handbags are authentic and they are just tagged no more than $200, it is very like that the handbags at their site are replicas. Second, famous handbag brands base their business on franchise store and advertisement and seldom have online handbag shops.So it is fool for you to believe what the handbag shop owners are saying when they assure you of that they are given the permission to sell hermes handbags online.Because all products under big brands have a uniuqe price and their frnchise stores are not entitled to change the price arbitrarily. Coach New Arrivals Last but least, you can check the reputation of the handbag store from whom you are going to buy handbgas. There are quite some ways through which you caan verify wether a handbag stores are reliable or not. You can either check it at some handbag forums or site review sites. That is especially useful if the handbag you want to buy is brand handbag like prada handbag or balenciaga handbag as there are some forums focused on them. Here you can talk handbags with the forum member or check the reputation of a certain handbag store. coach handbags outlet

Tampa Bay Buccaneers jerseys America is a big country with various popular sports and American football is one of them. NFL, the National Football League, is the highest level of professional American football in the United States. The hot sport also makes NFL Jerseys more and more popular. It represents a fashion, no matter you are sport fans or not. Nowadays everyone is getting involved in NFL gear and make money from the NFL jerseys because it becomes a growing business. But how to get into & make money from it? Los Angeles Clippers Jerseys Firstly, it is necessary to investigate the marketing and make some researches on NFL Jerseys before you begin it. Basically have to know the types of Jerseys. There are various types of NFL jerseys, mainly include Authentic Jerseys, Premier Jerseys and Replica Jerseys. Here I would like to talk about these three kinds of Jerseys according to my experience. The quality of Authentic Jersey is the best among the Jerseys so that the price is the most expensive. The materials and size of the Authentic Jerseys are the same as the Jerseys worn by the NFL players. The fabric is thicker & heavier, and more comfortable. And all the graphics are sewn on the Jerseys. Some fans also like to buy customized NFL Jerseys. They can select the name and the number of the NFL players they like. It takes more time and more money for customized Jerseys. Someone may feel an Authentic Jersey is too expensive, Premier Jersey is also an option. The Premier Jersey is usually made of nylon or polyester which is lighter. The numbers and names are also sewn but the quality is not so good as the Authentic Jerseys although they look the same. The Replica Jersey is cheaper than the Premier Jersey because the fabric is thinner. All the graphics and numbers are screen printed instead of sewn on. The quality is not so great, but is also very welcome by NFL fans. New York Jets Jerseys Secondly, find a reliable wholesaler & build a good cooperation with them. At present, most people prefer to on-line business due to its convenience. There are lots of NFL Jerseys wholesalers and choose reliable one is very important. Some of wholesalers send you nothing even they receive money. In addition, the low price is also very important due to strongly competitive markets. The lower price you get, the more profit you will make. Meanwhile, you also need compare the quality of the NFL Jerseys. New York Mets Jerseys [url] NFL Jerseys cheap nba jerseys http://www.jerseys2cheap.com [/url]

nba jerseys wholesale dallas mavericks Jerseys In the yesteryear nfl jersey was just a part of the official nfl equipment, no more and no less. Player jerseys were plain and their material was heavier that today's nfl jersey. They have lone sleeves. Their plainness and simplicity just result form that jerseys are just the team gear with no frills or designing. Just like legendary football coach Darry Royal said, they were actually work clothes. 2009 Pro Bow jerseys 2009 Pro Bow jerseys San Jose Sharks Jerseys Now there comes a complete change happened to nfl jerseys. when the growing popularity of NFL and advent of custom jerseys in football teams have transformed the team gear, as a part of team gear, nfl jerseys become trendier. Transcended its working clothes impression, custom jerseys for today's NFL football players have shorter sleeves, vibrant colors and attractive patterns. Now football teams have paid considerable attention towards design and appearance of their team gear. Minnesota Timberwolves Jerseys http://www.nfl2jerseys.com orlando magic Jerseys This year, there have be many teams changed their nfl jerseys. The appearance on the ground is much more inspired as this team gear is more eye-catching and sought-after. However, there is a prediction that beginning in 2010, the visiting team jersey shall meet some criteria. The yoke and the body of the jersey will be white and contain only the listed allowable adornments and accessory patterns; stripes of a maximized 1 inch in width probably placed on the sleeves; a broader may be around the collar and cuffs with maximized 1 inch width and a possibly used sideseam which insert from the underarms to the top of the pants with maximized 4 inches width. Also the home team jersey may take the same step with visiting team jerseys. The yoke and the body of the jersey may not contain white except as the number, a decorative stripe and a border on the collar or cuff and a sideseam. http://www.nba2jerseys.com Washington Redskins Jerseys San Jose Sharks Jerseys Whether these nfl jerseys will follow this way or not, they will be sure to be more stylish and vibrant, more than work jerseys looking. As the extreme popularity of football as sport in America has further popularized the nfl jersey, There are many fanatics wearing replica jerseys for NFl football matches to support their team. Also there you will find many people wearing authentic jerseys even out of the football games. By this way people find a more personal style statement, especially for the younger generation. All these increase the demand in sports general and nfl jerseys in particular. NBA Jerseys Oakland Raiders jerseys san antonio spurs Jerseys However, there are too many football seasons like NFL, NCAA, College Football and Monday Night Football which even add to the growing demand of team gears or jerseys. Now there are many people in passion collection authentic football game worn jerseys and replica jerseys of stars. The jerseys business is really prosperous. phoenix suns Jerseys New York Mets Jerseys

How do you know which Adamo to choose from?  Right now I am starting with a Sprint TRI and am a little heavier.   So no long rides for me yet.  I picked up a flyer to shoot for completing the Santa Fe Century next year.  There appears to be many to choose from.  If anyone can give me an idea where to start? I would greatly appreciate it.  RIDE ON!!

I too am a Adamo rider after what would seem an eternity of  "test" driving different products.  Like was previously mentioned  the seat does take some of a break in period and sitting the right way is helpful but after a bit the seat wears on you...around you or however the politically correct version might read.  I like to joke with friends and clients that my "lady garden" is tended too with the Adamo seat.  ( is that TMI...if so sorry ;-) )

I too found it a bit wide so I used a heavy duty zip tie to bring the two front pieces together.  Worked like a charm! 

My seat is the road saddle. 

Train strong!!

Love the saddle but had the same issue with some of the elite female athletes here with the front being too wide, we ended up duct taping the front together to make it narrower. Then it was amazing!

Hey Tanya,

I have the Adamo race saddle and like it a lot but I did have some problems in the beginning, with the front of it being too wide. My husband jerry-rigged it to make it a bit narrower and that made a big difference. I have heard that the road version is a bit softer so if anyone wants a little more cushion, they could try that one.

Hi Tanya,

I purchased a ISM Adamo race saddle last year for my triathlon bike. I didn't like the saddle that came with my new tri bike, did some research and decided to go with the Adamo saddle.

I reviewed the saddle on my Bike Diva blog, including a few photos: http://www.bikediva.net/2009/11/ism-triathlon-specific-racing-saddle.html

Take care,

Lynn Smythe

Could there possibly be a better saddle out there...I just don't think so! Not for me anyway. Here's my story about how I came to fall in love...with my adamo saddle that is :)

I was riding my bike happily for several months. I always squirmed a bit on my saddle, but not too badly. I got a new saddle which was women specific and I thought it was better, but really, this feeling lasted for maybe a couple of days. I hadn't ridden my bike for a few weeks and decided to take a spin up the coast here in San Diego. I went about 30 miles. When I got off the bike, I was almost in tears, it hurt to take baby steps...oh so painful!!! I vowed not to get back on my bike until I had a new saddle, I had been traumatized.

I looked around and when I saw the Adamo, I knew that this was what I was looking for. The soft tissue is where all the pressure was while riding my previous saddles. The adamo, while funny shaped, allows you to sit on the bones rather than the tissue.

I have to say, sitting on the bones is "different" and "odd" at first. But literally, the first time I got on the saddle and rode, I went about 25 miles and was overjoyed. For the first time I finally had tons of fun on the bike because I wasn't thinking about the pain from riding.

The adamo can take a while to get used to. For me, it is the difference in being able to ride or not. It's the only saddle I will sit on for both my tri and road bikes. Ok, I put one on the tandem too! When you lean forward and are in the drops or in aero there's no pressure on the soft tissue. It's simply amazing! And if you are in search of a new saddle I highly recommend trying the adamo if you are having any kind of pain or pressure in the soft tissue areas.

If you find the adamo saddle is too wide in the front, try zip-tying the two rails together. It will bring the noses together a little more and may solve that issue.

Most bike shops will let you try out the saddle and if you don't like it, bring it back, no questions asked, full refund. So check it out. Take one home put it on your bike and go for a spin, what could it hurt? Better yet, figure out that riding is suppose to be fun, not painful. Be aware that you might need to lower your seat height since the adamo is a bit taller and also bring the saddle forward because you will sit on the nose of this saddle primarily. I highly recommend taking measurements from the top of your pedal to the top of your current saddle and align the adamo that way. The same for the nose.

Sorry this was long and winded, I just can't tell you what a wonderful, remarkable difference this saddle has made for me...thousands of miles down the road, I'm still in love! I hope you fall in love too (even if it's with a different saddle) :)

Happy, comfy, riding!
Mary
