Fizik Arione R3 Adaptive Saddle Description:

The Fizik Arione R3 Adaptive Saddle features one of the most iconic saddle shapes in Fizik’s illustrious history, and now has been updated with improved ergonomics and versatility. The long and flat wing shape has been retained as it offers loads of positions that a rider can choose from to find the best balance of power and comfort. To this shape, Fizik has added 3D printed Adaptive Padding without a pronounced channel or cut out in the surface that lets a rider move freely around the saddle with less friction and chaffing, while different zones of firmness within the padding provide a significant reduction in peak pressure across the entire saddle surface for less discomfort and numbness especially during longer bike rides.Perhaps one of the most unique features of this saddle are the pronounced towers at the rear of the base plus long flat Kium Alloy rails that enable more fore and aft saddle position adjustability, making it easier for the rider to achieve maximum comfort and power production.

Features:

• Iconic Arione saddle shape is ideally suited for an aggressive, aerodynamic riding position
• Streamlined shape and a flatter profile from nose to tail makes it easier for the rider move around and to find the right position for maximum power and comfort
• 3D printed padding with tailored zonal cushioning retains a flat surface profile for more even weight distribution, but incorporates a softer density in the middle zone to relieve pressure on soft tissues to thwart discomfort and numbness especially on longer rides
• Carbon-reinforced nylon shell blends a compliant ride with enough structure to produce a stable mount
• Proprietary Kium saddle rails are stronger that traditional titanium rails while retaining the vibration damping and comfort that titanium is known for
• Unique rear saddle rail towers plus long rails allow this saddle to be positioned further forward so the rider can get into a powerful and aerodynamic sprinting position that is perfect for triathlons, time trials, and other situations that need frequent quick bursts of power
