Saw from reviews online that this dovetail adaptor is the perfect addition and upgrade for the Skywatcher AZ GTi mount as it does not mark the mounting bar and grips much more firmly. I didn't use the stock saddle on my AZ GTi, I bought one and fitted it the day my AZ GTi arrived. Next day delivery from FLO excellent service thank you.

I am amazed at how much of an increase in stability upgrading to this clamp has delivered, hadn't realised just how much flexing was coming from the mounting solution - net result, steadier views. Beautifully engineered product that looks great. Quick service from FLO as always. If you have an AZGTi buy this.

This is a beautiful upgrade for my az gti mount. Now no more dovetail markings and the scope is much more secure. As said previously in the reviews you'll need an imperial Allen key to for the saddle. The whole removal of old saddle and this one took 10 minutes.

The first one of these I bought was for a SolarQuest, but that requires a non-standard way of attaching (which is why it is not advertised as for the SolarQuest), but I was happy to do so. The second one was for my recently acquired AZ-GTi, and it installed perfectly. In both cases, the saddle is a substantial improvement over the stock saddle with the usual much firmer clamping, not to mention non-marring with no direct contact from screw bolts. It's ADM, what else can you say?

Ok so I purchased the ADM saddle for the AZ-GTI for two reasons .
1 : The ADM provides a large clamp to hold your scope , therefore giving you the peace of mind that your precious scope will be safely held .
2 : I literally hate marking the dovetail!! With this clamp my dovetail ( a specific one that was paired with my WO ZS73 ) stays mark free .
Anything I didn’t like ? Yep , NO instructions for removing the original clamp and fitting the ADM saddle .. zzz . Ok , so YouTube exists and it’s a fine reference point .. fortunately. Why instructions can’t be printed and supplied with astronomy gear is beyond me . Actually this is quite a simple work through but if you are like me who usually finds the hardest way to do stuff then an instruction or two would be invaluable!
Also , we are in the metric age , aren’t we ? .. well , be prepared to source an imperial Allen key , you are going to need it ! I ended up buying a set from Aldi of all places .
All in all I think whilst a non essential purchase the ADM saddle is a product that certainly enhances the functionality of the AZ-GTi mount . That can only be a good thing .

Beautifully machined piece of equipment. Very easy to fit, and holds the telescope really securely without marking the dovetail bar. Much better than the stock clamp, and a worthwhile upgrade to the AZGTI.

The number one addition to the AZ-GTi - so much more secure and stable.
Fantastic quality and finish.

Always a 5 Star

Thank You

Does just what it says on the tin. Easy to fit so long as you have both metric and imperial allan keys, seems a bit expensive but reassuringly robust so 4 stars

Excellent customer service from FLO. No instructions were received with the unit (avaialble on line) but the unit is easy to fix once the circular white cover is removed from the standard puck to revel the four holding screws. The white disk is actually metal and was well stuck down. I was expecting an easily removable plastic cover. Also, the existing screws (which you need to re-use) were really tightly screwed in so I had to take care not to strip the screwheads when removing them. The ADM fits easily and provides a much more secure fitting for the telescope. After fitting I noticed that the original Skywatcher has a shroud that covers the mount whereas the ADM does not and about 5mm of the mount with grub screws is exposed. Whether this poses a potential problem for ingress of dust or moisture remains to be seen but overall it is an excellent product. Perhaps they could proiduce one for the Star Adventurer whics has the same grotty single bolt fitting as the AZ GTI.
