New saddle - the Romin Evo

The Specialized Romin Evo - "The Perfect Saddle" Improved...






Since I found the Romin for my R5, I wanted to change the saddle on my Tomasso. I went to Berlin cycle to see if they had the new Romin Evo that Scott had suggested when I was looking earlier. The nose of the Evo is a bit narrower and dipped downward. I decided to get the chromoly version that has a gel pad that adds weight. This I felt was a good idea for winter training, and the added weight on the Tommaso is not an issue.
Yesterday was the first ride on the Evo, and I was extremely impressed. The Evo's cutout continues to re eave pressure on vital area of the anatomy, while the dipped nose provides room for others. The raised rear gives support when extra power from the hamstrings and backsides are required.
The end result is added speed and comfort providing me with a personal best speed over a common course in complete comfort The perfect saddle improved!

  1. Update: After many indoor rides the Romin Evo stands the test of time. I have ridden this saddle for hours without so much as a twinge. I provides great stability, but most of all no numbness or fatigue....Awesome!
