Now boasting 47,000 struts and 21,000 nodes the new saddle aims to deliver a significantly more comfortable position for riders no matter where they are sitting.

This new saddle also features a 40% bio-based liquid polymer which Specialized claim is more sustainable, less moisture absorbent and more durable than previous materials.
