That’s a really good point - my original intention was to get an adamo for my road bike, but I’ve been hesitant because there is no easy way for me to test it overseas.
Since I’ve only been riding on the turbo trainer lately, I paid attention to how I handle a scooter today (a scooter saddle is not a saddle - it’s a seat with a tiny bump where the nose should be, so it’s essentially noseless, fwiw). When doing gradual turns, I just use my right or left buttock to lean the scooter. Only during sharper turns to do push with my handlebars for more dramatic leans.
Maybe something like a Selle SMP might work better on a road bike? (eg due to non-TT saddle positioning/less loss of handling) What did you end up using on your road bike?
i tried an SMP…just could not get comfortable no matter what i did. if there’s a magic position, i didn’t find it. i’ve been on a specialized toupe for a few years, and it’s fine, but i can’t rotate my hips forward as much as i’d like. still hoping for a better solution at some point.
adamo might have been fine with a setback seatpost, but i didn’t need a new saddle that badly.
