I bought a new Adamo racing saddle on eBay... my bike fit guy said "you'll either love it, or you'll hate it."  Didn't work for me.

Price is $110 + $8 shipping.

Saddle is brand-new, in box, in perfect condition.

Trisports.com has this saddle for $159.95, with BT discount, would be $143.96 + $9.50 shipping = $153.16, so you're saving around $35.

 How long did you ride it? I hated mine for about 120 miles, but stuck with it. I really enjoy it now. I have a friend who might want this thing. I'll try to get in touch with him. Don't hold it for me, if an offer comes in, sell it!

I am more impatient than you.    Rode it probably for about 3 rides of an hour to an hour and a half each, so I guess around 70 miles or so.

Echo the need for a little patience, and the proper adjustment. Put one on my tri bike midway through last season, and could never get comfortable with it. About a month ago I let my bike-fit guy have a look at the fit, he did some tinkering, and now I'm comfortable and loving it more with every ride.

Were you in pain... for example, after I am on there for about 1/2 hour or so, if I get up off the saddle, the pain is ridiculous.  Then when I sit back down, it is worse.

I haven't had my bike fit guy take a look... I guess I am a bit reticent to spend more $$ to have him fit me on this saddle which I am not sure about keeping.  I'll shoot him an email and see if he's available, though.

Yes I was like that at 1st, It takes time for your seat bones to get used to it, but also fitting it properly is a must for this saddle. Got the website and get the intructions and tweak it.

If I am riding aero position (which how it was designed) I can ride a long time on that saddle without issues, if I am constantly sitting up, OUCH!
