Wondering if anybody has heard or ridden on noseless saddles. Asking because I am tired of riding and shifting(balls not gears). Would appreciate some input. Currently I am riding the Azoto Gel, leaning towards the Profile new tri saddle. Cheers Rick

I bought an Adamo saddle from Blackwell Research. It was designed by John Cobb. http://www.blackwellresearch.com/p_seats.htm

I didn't make sense to me to keep trying seats that were basically variations on the same design so I went with something quite different. I'm using it on the time trial bike only and in the aero position the seat is very comfortable. There is no pressure on "the package" at all. At first I got some minor chaffing on inside of thighs but don't notice it now. Before I would just tough it out and endure the pressure on the balls. At least now all the suffering will only be in my legs.

Rick, I'm in the asme boat as you. I'm on the verge of trying it. Did you get one? Park, do you center the "taint" area in the two fingers? Does it not limit you by having such a short nose or do you slide it way forward? I ride the Profile Tri Gel and like an aggressive position way out on the nose. Thanks Bob

I find since my wife carries my testis in her purse it hasn't been an issue for the last 18 years.
