[Closed] Like a Specialized Phenom

I have a phenom on my best bike and love it. Would like to get a similar shape saddle for one of my other bikes. It doesn't get used as much so if I can find a phenom like saddle without the £100 price tag that would be great.
any ideas?

eBay. Loads of nearly new saddles people haven't got on with.

Don't think I asked the question very well there. I am looking for a saddle that matches the shape and size of a phenom as closely as possible. Oh. And it needs to come in 155 size. Cheers.

Ah, just saw your second post. The ubiquitous Spoon/Flux/R-Series is very similar in shape to a 143 Phenom though. I get on well with both, though the Specialized saddles definitely stay comfortable for longer. The Sppons etc all seem to lose padding after a couple of thousand km.

Transfer your existing Phenom between bikes, unless you have mastered the art of sitting on two bikes and riding them at the same time. 😉

I've got 155 Phenom's and Avatar's on my bikes and much prefer the Avatar. On sale at Evans

But if you could get a cheaper Phenom on eBay, as suggested, then isn't that better than something which is "like a Phenom...?".

The Phenom Comp seems to come up quite often, a few selling for <£30, admittedly 155 is probably the least common size though.

I used to like the Phenom, now much prefer Bontrager Evoke.

I like them too but never pay 100

New or nearly new on eBay for 30-40

Am I the only one disappointed this wasn’t titled “something like a phenom”?
