ISM PS Series No Nose Bike Saddle - Noseless Bike Seat Designed for Triathletes, Time Trial Riders, and Road Racers - Patented Split Nose Bicycle Saddle Designed for Reduced Discomfort

As Rihanna sings, "where have you been all my life?" This saddle is a game changer. I'm yet to find a negative about this product so I'll jump into the positive. I'm a triathlete and have been having abdominal discomfort in aero the last couple of races (olympic and half IM distances) despite seat adjustments and a bike fit. I'm training for a full Ironman so comfort for the 112 mile ride is definitely important. This ISM saddle is the ticket! It took me about half a dozen micro rides and adjustments to get this seat in what I believe to be the optimal position. I just took it out for a 25 miler today and couldn't be happier. I spent most of the time in aero and had no issues. This saddle allowed me to comfortably get into a more aggressive aero position with no discomfort in my abdomen or my junk (I'm a male). When sitting upright, it was a very minor shift to move backward in the seat in order to climb a hill. I can't wait for a longer ride to really put this saddle to the test. If you're in the market, look no further!

I don’t get numb with this saddle but a padded short is still needed.

ISM PS1.1 is the new branding for the old Adamo Road saddle. I ordered both (aside ISM's re-branding is really confusing as both saddles are in pipeline) and the only noteworthy changes are a slight taper to the arms and a slightly grippier saddle cover on the PS1.1. As for the saddle itself, there's definitely no free lunch here, in order to take the pressure of your squishy bits, your weight moves onto your hands and sit bones. The first handful of longer rides were pretty painful as I got the fit diled in (and my backside acclimated); but I'm happy to say that after a few hundred miles my body has mostly adapted and the saddle is comfortable. All things considered, not particularly light or sexy looking, but if you give it a chance it can be pretty solid for a recreational rider.

The best saddle I've ever used on my TT bike. It keeps me locked in the position with no pain or numbness.

I started using this saddle years ago when nothing else worked. My coach was doing a fitting and said, "Let's try this one." A bit of spinning and I knew THIS IS THE ONE! It's ok for an hour or an hour and a half, but two hours is uncomfortable to me.

The cushioning is not bad. The nose is wide, causing rubbing on the insides of my thighs, which would in due time ruin expensive bib shorts.

Works as advertised...completely solves the guy numbness problem and has plenty of padding for long rides (I use gel shorts too though). I also used this saddle on my Tri Bike with aero bars and very thin shorts, worked great for 16 mile triathlon ride (very low/bent over riding position). BUT you might not adjust the level correctly if you use a board across the whole seat...the directions clearly state that the front forks should be level to slightly nose down...if you level the seat as a whole, it will be slightly nose up overall and VERY uncomfortable. Don't ask how I figured that out! When I adjusted it properly, it's the best saddle I've every used.

After only two rides the saddle is showing signs of wear and tear. The saddle feel good and serves the purpose; however, there seems to be a dent already in the foam in one of the prongs. Not at all satisfied with the quality of the product.

Il migliore acquisto che abbia mai fatto per ciò che riguarda il materiale sportivo.

I've been riding on my Peloton for about 2 years now. At least once or twice during every ride I had to pedal standing up because I could feel my...you know...feeling numbness. I read about how bad that is for guys and the cluster of nerves and blood vessels down there. I tried buying some of the other 'ergonomic' seats on Amazon, even the $100 plus ones. Those that helped avoid numbness were too wide, like a vintage ladies' bike seat, or too flexible. Either I couldn't get comfortable or I felt like I was falling over the side or one side was going to crack off or something. Others just did nothing to help with the numbness. This worked instantly. Multiple rides. No numbness. No discomfort. Firm and well made like my Peloton OEM seat. Honestly, Peloton should Partner with these guys and sell this as an optional accessory. Definitely MUST listen to the directions on the packaging about adjusting seat placement and height though. You DEFINITELY want the seat about 4cm back and about 1/2" lower. You want your seat bones comfortably on the rear when in a comfortable seated position for pedalling with power smoothly. I kept my level, like usual. If you usually have your seat at a slight incline, you may need to copy that.
