Specialized Limited Edition Saddles

Written by

VERY limited release of some special edition saddles from Specialized. We have one of each in stock

Belgian Classic, Chicane

The races held upon the twisting, undulating, cobbled roads of Belgium each spring represent the hallmarks of a certain breed of rider: tough, tactical, indomitable. Many of Belgium's hardest have aspired to earn the title of "Lion of Flanders".

To celebrate the 100-plus year history of these iconic events—and, more notably, the gritty, talented riders that live for them—Specialized offers this limited edition saddle that combines time-honored materials and craftsmanship with modern Body Geometry technology.

Because even the most hardened man likes a comfortable place to sit.

Toupé Rosso

Page through decades of motorsport (or, for that matter, bike racing) imagery: purpose-built machines, checkered flags, flowers, champagne, and beautiful women appearing together. And, more often than not, what is the color of the race-winning machines?

It's a given: Red Things Go Faster

So, if some red helps things go fast, then a lot of red should help things go faster. Therefore, something that's ALL RED should be fastest of all, right?

Romin Cork

Within the cycling lexicon the "corked" maxim—and other references to Champagne
—date back to the early 1900s, when 6-day races were en vogue (as far as we're concerned, they still are) and champagne would flow freely to the victors.

So, the cork became synonymous with having power or energy on demand. If you were "uncorked", you wound up "feeling flat". Your day was over. It's all so very clear, now. Isn't it? May you always be corked.
