Specialized's new S-Works Power saddle is unquestionably strange looking, what with its radically clipped nose. But what's taken away isn't really necessary and what's left is supremely comfortable รข€“ provided you're not one to move around too much.
The new Power's shape is essentially a hybrid of several current Specialized saddles, borrowing the longer and wider cutout of the company's women-specific models, the broad and relatively flat cross-section of the MTB-focused Phenom, and the stubby length and nose of the Sitero.
Although the Power looks unusually wide at first glance, that's only because of its unusual proportions. In reality, its width matches up closely to Specialized's more conventional Romin, although it's a substantial 30mm shorter in length.

Specialized is only now officially launching the Power, but BikeRadar has actually been testing an earlier pre-production sample for nearly seven months now.
