ISM seats look funny but hey so do triathletes. Just a joke ha ha.
My company side of the story is I had a defect with the Seat and without questions ISM is helping me replace it with a new one!!! This is a thank you to dave and his team at ISM. I will be riding them for life now.
As far as the product–I bought an ISM RACE seat and after about 20 rides it was perfect. Yes it does take getting used to but once you are on it long enough and fit right it works.
My thoughts on this seat to ISM—Seat after seat after seat, and Bike fit after bike fit after bike fit, then I realized maybe I need to try the ISM. So, I got the ISM race and all problems where sloved. I am now 2 inches lower in the front end of my tri bike and for the first rime able to get into a more aero position. Thank you ISM your Race Saddle is awsome. My advice to anyone trying out an ISM you got to give it time and then you will see the benfits. Great saddle thanks for making something so comfortable!!! The name says it all Ideal Seat Modification for those that ride Bikes!!!

One side of the front of the saddle would roll off to the side when I sat on it. So if you pressed both sides of the “fork”, one side would compress straight down, as it should, and the other would just kind of roll to the side instead of compressing straight down.
Bama, I’ve been considering trying the Adamo for quite some time. More because I’m curious. I’m on the Arione Tri 2 now. Can I ask why it takes 20 rides to get used to? Is it getting confortable or does it take that long to get the position just right?
No problem hope this answers. It takes that long to get used to no soft tissue pain. It really is not that bad even the first ride. The onlu issues come from positioning that takes a few rides to get used to. FOR ME it was 20 rides for most it is like 10, I also have an estimated 10,000 plus miles on the other kind with a nose either way this SADDLE rocks this give it time.
