The Specialized Women’s Phenom Expert Saddle With MIMIC is a saddle that perfectly adapts to your body to give you the support you need. For as long as thereve been saddles women have been having issues with them. The MIMIC saddle range is the result of research with female cyclists to find solutions that really work. The MIMIC range of saddles have been ergonomically designed & scientifically tested to provide structural & anatomical support, while also reducing pressure on “sensitive areas.” Many saddles seek to relieve pressure by having a cut-out section in the middle. In the research for MIMIC it was found that, for some women, soft tissue was actually swelling through the cut-out. The solution wasn’t filling in the cut-out, though. Instead, it required a foam that provided support without adding a pressure of its own. & with that, MIMIC was born. By matching the tissue density between the saddle & the body—“mimicking” soft tissue—the saddle gives the firm support that the sit bones want with the density-matched firmness your body needs. The Women’s Phenom Expert Saddle combines this technology with the long-nosed, flat profile of the Phenom Expert saddle. With its hollow titanium rails & Level IiPadding for extra comfort. You get a high-performance saddle thats designed for an aggressive riding position (ben over & low on the bars). It still features all of the body geometry design characteristics you know & love so you can be assured of superior all-day comfort in any ride position. Features Patented Body Geometry design is lab-tested to ensure blood flow to sensitive arteries. Innovative Mimic technology uses multi-layered materials to maintain equilibrium & minimize swelling in soft tissue. Lightweight, durable, & hollow titanium rails. Level IiPadding: Medium density foam for bike feel with additional cushioning. SWAT-compatible mounts moulded into the saddle base allow for sleek & integrated storage solutions.
