Power Expert with Mirror

After a professional bike fitting and three rides, I have given up on this saddle. I got a 155mm width one based on the bike fit. Each ride, after about 30 minutes of road riding my sit bones hurt. It was sharp pain. I've ridden road for decades and have had other Specialized saddles for 10k+ miles. This one just does not work for me.

This saddle is super hard in the transition area near the cutout where it goes from regular foam to the mirror material… which is a painful place to be so rigid. I can’t use it and I have 5 bikes with versions of the power saddle so I’m trying to figure out how to return it but the online shop is telling me I have to warranty it. Frustrating.

I love the mirror Pro (with open holes). This saddle (power Expert with cover) is way harder. Hard edges. Hard plastic at the nose. Hard padding under the sitbones…nothing like the regular mirror Pro.

I tried a number of saddles from several manufacturers before settling on this. It has the Mirror tech just where you need it and is super comfortable. The cut out is good for my parts, though YMMV.

Discovered the Power saddles years ago after increasing misery on my sit bones using several others; made me happy to ride again. The Power Pro w/ Mirror surface was too tacky and rough for my shorts, so I gave up on it and went with this one. Comfort of Mirror without the abrasive surface.

This is a fantastic saddle! I like it so much that I eventually purchased one for each of my bikes. Now all of my rides are just as comfortable.

I tried this in a 130mm and found that the plastic edges are sharp and protrude ever so slightly making it uncomfortable.

Comfortable from the very start. If you have big legs like mine, the narrower saddle is better.

Cette selle correspond parfaitement à mes attentes.Tres bon qualité prix .

Le meilleur produit excellent

This set is not comfortable on my sit bones. I'm not sure if the seat is just not the correct fit but the discomfort sets in fast and is fairly miserable.

I bought this bike because i have always loved specialized aluminum frames. They just seem to have a certain ring to them if that makes sense. The mechanical brakes are more than adequate regardless of what you’ve heard. only upgrades i made were roval seat post and power elite seat.The pathfinder tires are awesome in my opinion,i’ve ridden a variety of surfaces and I'm impressed so far.

Bester Sattel den ich je hatte. Ich bin sehr zufrieden. Auch nach längeren Ausfahrten und mehreren Höhenmetern mit dem MTB keine Schmerzen.

Ich fahre den 155er Sattel auf einem Trekking Custom Pedelec, montiert auf einer By Schulz St. Meines Empfindens muss der Sattel etwas nach vorn geneigt justiert werden (bis zu knapp 10°),ansonsten ist der Druck im mittleren Sitzbereich zu stark.

Light, good shape and well featured, not 100% sure about the mirror role play on comfort

Correct item, great quality. Very comfortable seat. Best part for me is the seat has grip and I don’t side while riding

Comfort is so-so. Better than others but still not great.

Comfert level is excellent, was concerned with short nose but was not an issue. Coming from Ergon Sm Pro saddle for mtb use this is a game changer.

Echt toller Sattel. Ich habe einen S-Works Mirror an meinem Rennvelo, welcher ein absoluter Traum ist, Dieser hier ist nun an meinem Pendelrad. Ideale Mischung aus Komfort und super Passform.

La scelta della sella è sempre difficile perché non si può provare. Con questa non avverto più il dolore alle ossa ischiatiche ed è sufficientemente comoda per starci sopra diverse ore. Ottimo il comportamento sullo sconnesso (la uso su una Epic HT), e la forma.

Best of the bunch! I had the sworks power mirror but found it too squishy and too tacky. This is a step in the right direction. Very happy with the saddle.

The Specialized Power saddle with Mirror technology is a game-changer for comfort. Its innovative design takes the riding experience to the next level. I loved it so much that I ended up getting one for each of my bikes. Highly recommend for cyclists seeking unparalleled comfort.

Ottima sella molto comoda la consiglio

Very good bike saddle. Fast shipping and super customer support.

I've had saddle sores for years and when I got sized for a saddle they recommended 155mm, and I was recommended the regular power saddle in that size. But I still had issues, and I changed everything from different clothing, a bike fit, etc. Finally decided to try out a wider 168mm saddle and in this new mirror version where the mirror tech is encased in an outer shell (cheaper and won't get dirty). I know I sound like an ad but this is legit: I went on one ride and already noticed a difference and now I don't get sores with or without chamois. I know my experience is different in that I should've been on a wider saddle in the first place, but I do think the mirror tech helps relieve pressure from certain spots too. I'm female if that helps you make your decision, and I believe I was on the cusp of needing at 168mm in the first place. Highly recommended saddle! Gotta get one for all my bikes now.

I'm 5'-6" & 125lbs. I'm short & skinny. When I purchased my Tarmac SL7 Expert, I was disappointed with the 155mm OEM Power Expert saddle (too wide & loose/squeaky Titanium rail). I'm so happy to ride a 130mm saddle because I love the narrow shape & Mirror inserts. This 130mm saddle is comfortable & quiet.

I've tried five other saddles over the past two months (including other Specialized, Selle, and ISM) in my search to end numbness and perineal pain and none worked. And this one is the answer! I've ridden it for about 50 miles and my nether parts have felt great for every mile. When I felt the saddle with my fingers in the store, I thought it might be too firm, but the technology works well and I've been very comfortable on it. Now I can actually just enjoy my rides rather than thinking about my saddle.

Having tried the Power Expert with Mirror bicycle saddle for a few weeks now, I can say it's a solid choice for those looking for a bit more comfort on their rides. The Mirror technology does seem to offer a more customized fit, which I appreciate. The design is modern and the materials feel durable. The cut-out design is a nice touch, helping to reduce pressure in key areas, though individual experiences might vary. While it might not be a revolutionary change for everyone, it's a dependable saddle that does its job. If you're considering a new saddle, the Power Expert with Mirror is worth a look.

At first it was a little shorter since it’s a power saddle, but after a few rides I got used to it. Also the mirror technology is great a provides sufficient cushioning on long rides.

Bisher ca. 400km und 6000hm habe ich keinen Grund zur Beanstandung. Meine Mitfahrer konnten nach dem 2 Tag nicht mehr sitzen, ich schon. Für mich jeden Cent wert!

I've had an S-works Power Mirror saddle since launch - love it! But sometimes, it feels a little too soft for my liking. I saw the Power Expert Mirror launched and decided to give it a go. After a few weeks of riding, I like it more than my S-works Mirror. I agree with another reviewer that it's not as soft/comfortable as the S-works product, but it's literally more than half the price off. It definitely takes the edge off of normal foam saddles and you really can't beat the price. 5 stars!!

Bought the 168mm version to replace a 143mm Power saddle that came with the bike. Expected the 168mm saddle would be wider throughout when compared to the 143mm, but it is not. The middle / flat portion of the saddle (when looking from back) is the same width as the 143mm. The 143mm and 168mm both slope away from the flat portion equally. The 168mm just slopes away from that flat middle further. Not sure this actually offers more support for wider sit bones, while still allowing for pressure relief in the middle. That said, it's not uncomfortable. It's just not better than the 143mm and I don't think it offers what all the "Body Geometry" and "Validated by Science" marketing would suggest for those of us wanting/needing the wider size.

I bought this saddle because I though it would be softer for the but. This saddle is very stiff more then i though and was not confortable for me, i am sending it back. I though this saddle was as soft as the s works model but it is not the case.

Ich habe den Sattel für mein Rennrad gekauft, da ich Probleme mit meinem vorherigen hatte. Der Sattel ist super bequem und das merkt man vor allem bei den langen Ausfahrten, die so 4 bis 6 Stunden dauern. Ich kann den Sattel nur empfehlen und werde ihn mir wahrscheinlich auch noch fürs Enduro bestellen.

Pretty cool concept but something is missing. Saddle shell is too flexible so lots of creaking noises from shell, rails and padding. Might be more suitable for road or gravel but it didn’t work for me mountain biking. Didn’t have these issues with the Power Mirror version.

I knew my previous saddle (brooks C13) was a bit uncomfortable, especially on 100km plus rides, and that I could use a change, but I actually had a "wow" moment the first time I rode with this one. It seems like specialized hit the perfect balance between firmness and comfort. It doesn't flex a lot when pedaling but also provides soft cushioning in just the right place to make it super comfortable. This is my first stubby nose saddle and I adjusted to it right away. I no longer want to move around on the saddle looking for the sweet spot - it just feels right in any position. In case it helps others, I measured my sit bones at 115mm distance using the cardboard method and went with the specialized recommended 143mm saddle version. For me it's a perfect fit and I can highly recommend it! Well done Specialized!

tenuta per un anno e mezzo una s-works power mirror, provenendo da una power expert vecchio modello, decido di vendere la s-works e fare un downgrade perché la forma di questa la trovavo meglio per la mia conformazione...confermo l'effettiva comodità della tecnologia mirror
