Tri Saddle

I am fast finding out that my current adamo prologue is causing chaffing/pain between the peritoneum/legs, think it is the width/length of the front arms.  

This thought is after trying 3 different pair of bib shorts and a bike fit.

Anyone know of a tri saddle that doesnt cause undue discomfort after 60/70miles

    Know what you mean. Only wear tri-shorts when riding mine.



    The prongs on mine narrow slightly towards the front. So try moving it backwards so that your sit-bones are supported on a narrower part when in the aero tuck position rather than perching on the bits that are getting rubbed

    I saw the title and was already bringing up ISM info on another page... so that's no use to you.

  • There is this http://www.ismseat.com/saddle/pn-11

    Its 110mm rather than 135mm.

    I did quite abit of investigating before I bought this. I have narrow hips for a female and have not had a problem with this since purchase last Summer.

    You can try zip tying the rails at the front to pull them together making the saddle narrower.I had the same problem and in the end got a John Cobb cycling saddle ....that cured it for Me.

     

  • I had the Adamo Road and had the same problem. I've tried a few different saddles for my TT bike with no success until I recently tried and then bought a fizk tritone 6.5 (they also do a 5.5) It is the most comfortable race saddle I've tried, I've done 2 middle and a standard distance race with no problems
