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!

Love this saddle so much- I’m a tall triathlete who rides in an aggressive position, and the PS 1.1 is the only saddle I trust to give me the comfort and blood flow I need during my rides. It breaks in quickly for me after just a ride or two, and then it just totally disappears underneath me. It lasts about 8 months for me- if you are smaller/lighter it may last longer for you - but it’s well worth the price.

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.

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.

Sent used versus new. Superficial wear but false advertising.Update: They promptly addressed issue and sent new saddle! May have been an Amazon fulfillment issue.

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.

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.

I’m pretty heavy and wide. This seat was great for numbness. However it contacted my sitting bones at too fine a point and led to some serious bruising. I think if I wore my bike shorts and wasn’t an idiot it’s fantastic. However, I am looking for something where I won’t need padded shorts to train indoors.

Der Sattel hat nach der ersten Ausfahrt schon starke Falten im vorderen Bereich.

fährt sich gut, auch auf längere Distanzen

Fitted to my TT bike after trying several different saddles and still getting sore bit’s despite bike fit. The ISM saddle has made my TT bike is now a joy to ride not a chore. Support through the nose is great and not too wide to rub insides of legs either, power increase and can stay aero for longer as well. You have bought one years ago

Excellent product. Super comfortable. I installed it on my tri bike and zero numbness although I have a very aggressive aero position.
