Oh Man! I deleted the Specialized Comp Saddle Thread...

I am so sorry.
I was cleaning house and saw that @jaime had a duplicate Power Saddle Post going. I combined them, then saw it was a duplicate. Deleted the duplicate and the whole thing went away.

It's a great thread on a great saddle. It's the first time I have done something like that and I am truly sorry.
I hope we can start another thread on the Specialized Comp as it truly is a great saddle.

My apologies!
Mikie

 

Great! Next thing you know all of my posts will be deleted!

 

This can be arranged...

 

I smell CENSORSHIP.

It's just a seat... Its not like he bought a whole Specialized bike.

 

Hahah! Now you KNOW I have a Speshy Saddle atop my Yeti.....nice try

 

I believe the saddle you guys are talking about is the Specialized "power" saddle.

 

You are correct mundo.. I'm a terrible moderator. Someone contact the owner and have me fired!

 

We all make mistakes. You are to be commended for trying so hard. Here, here's your trophy for participation.

 

Well... In the vein of recreating the thread content for posterity...

@jaime picked up the Specialized Power saddle. We talked a little bit off-line about saddles, and I shared my story about the doctor recommending an anatomically friendly saddle for some personal issues. You old guys can probably get where I'm going... Basically, if you ever get numb while riding, it ain't a good thing. It's caused by restricted blood flow to the man parts and surrounding areas. Personally, I want as much blood going through there as possible. I plan on keeping all those parts in tip top shape.

At the time I bought mine, the market wasn't as packed with designs that took the pressure off the nether regions, and I went with the Adamo Peak. It's been around for a long time, and is one of the originals. It looks funny, with its split rail design, but it's the same basic shape as the Specialized saddles of today, with an open area to relieve pressure on the perineum, and an "elevated" rear for the sit bones. Unlike my saddle, however, @bigringrider101 will never accuse Jaime of showing up on a girls' saddle.

If I were in the market today, I would really consider one of the Power saddles, as the shape is very similar to my Adamo, and the price is a lot nicer...

EDIT: @Mikie - I'll save a copy of this on my computer just in case there's another "accident" while we're discussing Specialized stuff.

Speshy power comp
$89+tax (carbon $300)
Best seat I've owned. Forget about numbness with this one

 

Great Idea. Unfortunately wrong thread. The Phenom was my post. Jaime was referring to the Speshy Power Saddle.

 

But apparently not the same one as everyone else....so delete the thread and make them think you are just like us.

 

Don't worry....when Specialized finds out about the deleted thread they will sue....for something!
