MK Killer Posted February 5, 2015 Share Hi there, Searched various threads and cant find an answer... so I turn to thehub... Any users with experience of using Adamo saddles for mountain biking? I know there is a specific version called the Peak that can be used for mountain biking - BUT I have been given an Adamo Prologue saddle. I currently use the Prologue on my road bike which I LOVE. only saddle that doesnt give me dead d!ck. So my question, rather more simply, is do you think I can slap the extra prologue on my MTB?

ZakAttak Posted February 5, 2015 Share In my opnion which is worth not much if anything at all... It shouldn't be a problem... I ride with an Fizik Antares on both road (when I had a road bike) and now on the Mountain Bike, best saddle for my fit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My view is also similar - in that I think the distinction between MTB and road saddles is minimal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Zone Posted February 5, 2015 Share It really depends on whether you are riding a 26 or 29'er, if you have a hardtail or dual susser. Other key issues are if the saddle matches the grips. Are you running tubeless? what gearing? 27 speed, 3 x 10, 1 x 10? This is a very complex issue. Alright seriously, if its comfortable go for it, the only concern may be a lack of durability in the materials, could get scuffed up a bit easier.

SwissVan Posted February 5, 2015 Share Thanks for the response. My view is also similar - in that I think the distinction between MTB and road saddles is minimal I changed to an Adamo saddle on my road and tri bike early last year and also think they are the best saddle I can remember owning and also considering putting one on my MTB now. Personally I don't see it making much difference from a function point of view. The main difference with the adamo's I have are that they are shorter in the front so unless you use the nose of your saddle to "press" or "grip" with your legs then it should not make a difference.

Excellent points - specifically re durability Never thought of whether the Prologue can stand up to a beating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havent looked carefully but im sure the "nose" of the prologue is long enough to grip onto? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
