Been using a Specialized power for some time on all my bikes which has been good but not perfect.

Just tried my girlfriends Specialized oura on my bike and it feels very very nice! Need to try a decent length ride tomorrow but it feels a little weird riding a women’s saddle......!

I have a buddy who is riding the Specialized Mimic saddle and he says he loves it. He manages an LBS and has access to lots and lots of options and he is choosing the Mimic and ripping off legs with it.

The Power originally was designed for Evelyn Stevens, so even that is technically a woman’s saddle. ;)

Yeah I suppose this is true! The mimic looks exactly the same shape as the power. 44 hilly miles on the oura today and I like it! Shape looks very like the Romin, which I didn’t get on with. More clearance for thighs too.
