Title: ADEM Headrest
Post by jcsadowski on Jan 18^th, 2010, 9:04am

For those who have a ADEM-2 Headrest.

Quote:

I try to listen and respond to people's requests and over the last year, the most common request has been for a more comfortable pad on the ADEM 2 headrest. In response, I have developed a new pad made from ZoteFoam, a durable closed cell material used for athletic equipment and medical products, among other things. In addition, I have mounted the pad in rubber grommets so it floats and readily aligns to the user's neck. These changes alone produced a very comfortable ride and the ZoteFoam "Sport" pad will be standard on ADEM 2 headrests. Since I recognize that some people make more extensive use of the headrest, I added an even more comfortable pad, the "LX" which is available as an upgrade option. The LX has much of its inside material removed to form a large hollow cavity. This makes the LX more compliant and it absorbs more road shock.
Both the Sport and LX pads are also available for upgrading a previously purchased ADEM 2 headrest. Under the ADEM Store tab, select the Upgrade/Update Center to purchase the new pads.
Shortly, I will also begin shipping the ADEM 2 with Black anodized aluminum parts. I believe that will be the final touch to make it a quality bicycle accessory. When I receive the anodized parts, I will also make those available as an upgrade.
Also, if you know anyone still riding an older, Original ADEM headrest, please pass this on. I would like everyone to enjoy the unique features of the ADEM 2 headrest. To make that easier, I am offering a $30 discount on future purchases of the ADEM 2 or 2C when you return your older "original" ADEM headrests to me. See the web site for details.
Thanks for your support,
Don

I ordered one. It took about fifteen minutes to remove the old cushion and install the new one.

It is a 100% improvement. I have only ridden it 40 miles so far but I can feel a world of difference.

I bought the LX model with the hollow inside. Well worth the extra $5.00
