According to the product specialist
Pros
The Fizik Tempo Argo R3 saddle is suitable for less flexible cyclists with a bit more hip movement. |
This saddle is perfect for the long-distance cyclist. It offers good pelvic support. |
The carbon-reinforced saddle shell makes the saddle last longer and power transfer is greatly improved. |
The large recess takes pressure off sensitive areas. |
The rails of the Argo R3 are hollowed out for an optimal strength-to-weight ratio. |
This saddle allows you to sit in a deep position without causing posterior discomfort. |
This saddle has a flat back, which makes the Pro Stealth suitable for cyclists who sit still or only slightly rock their hips while cycling. |
The cut-out relieves pressure on the soft tissue areas. |
The shell of this saddle is reinforced with carbon. This improves the transmission of power and makes the saddle less prone to deformation. |
Due to the stainless steel rails, this saddle provides sufficient comfort and is lighter than the Pro Stealth Sport saddle. |
The carbon shell means the saddle will retain its shape for longer. |
The Wing Flex makes the saddle a little friendlier to the inside of your thighs. |
Cons
This saddle is less suitable for the flexible cyclist. |
Not every cyclist will sit comfortably on this saddle. Take your degree of flexibility, cycling posture and seat bone width into account, or follow the steps in our Saddle Selection Guide. |
As this is a hard saddle, you will need long and frequent rides to get used to it. It offers the best support for longer rides. If you ride less than three times a week, you need a softer saddle that offers more comfort. |
