Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

S-Works Power Arc saddle

I knows saddles is a personal option and you have to "try it". But I wonder if this is a saddle that works well in a "3" position. More upright than the usual racing saddle.

Saddles are unique experience for each rider, but I will give my two cents. I actually prefer the Power saddle to the Power Arc. The only thing bad about the Power saddles is that they it is a one position saddle. If your not racing, the Expert model is more comfortable to me.

short nose saddle is designed to overcome the 5cm UCI rule so the rider can sit more forward and lower, if that does not apply for you then a regular saddle like brooks c17 is a better starting point
