Anyone out there know of any seamless and nearly padless tri shorts, mine are just killing me when I ride my adamo TT seat, especially the seams on the inside. I have tried Desoto, LG, cycling shorts…ideas??
you could try our Twin shorts or our Prima XC shorts; the padding is very slim and seamless.
hope this helps.
I use the Orca 226 (full tri suit) and the pad is wide enough that it avoids the horrible chafe of the seams with the adamo. I also have a pair of Desoto tri shorts that avoid the same chafing issues.
just got my Rev3 kit and the are Pearl Izumi.
first thing i commented on was the SEAMLESS crotch! LOVED them for my first ride out for Knoxville Half. so for 56 miles of bikeing followed by a lot of wetness during that 13 miles of “running” i can safely say NOTHING chafed! this is something that i haven’t been able to say for any of my gear in the passed. some were better than others, but ALL of them left me with hot spots somewhere.
i’d have to check to see what model Pearl Izumi they are (Elite i think) but i totally reccomend them!
they fit great too as a side note.

ism adamos work great with high end swim jammers or briefs during oly’s or sprints…though in 70.3 and up I do use a pad.

DeSoto tri shorts. Love them with my Adamo. Most comfortable combination I’ve found to date.
I concur with Andre. Kiwami shorts move the seams to the thighs so there are no seams in the crotch area. Kiwami also has some models without pads. However, their pads pretty thin and minimal to start with (which I personally prefer).

Will try the Kiwami shorts, Thanks!

My adamo TT seems to work well with some Lusso shorts I got from chain reaction, but still not perfect.
