For reference, I went from a Fill carbom Seele San MArco back to a padded Fizik and it's made a world of difference, No adjustment in height - just different seats.
To the OP good luck with the hunt and make use of Performance Bike's return policy for this. You can always try and return until you find the right one.

Keep in mind you're tlaking to ABH - our local retro grouch. He doesn't believe that any rider needs clipless pedals either.
BTW - ABH - I was thinking about that just 2 days ago when I showed up to my race with 2 different shoes and couldn't clip in on the right side. I was able to hook the cleat on the pedal, but pulling up was impossible. I took the start and thought to myself, "according to ABH I shouldn't have any issues - I mean he says we don't really pull up on the pedals anyway."
After practially killing myself coming out of 2 turns I retired.
BTW - I will now refer to you (ABH) as
