Posititeve ervaring

- GEERT, 12 June, 2022

Tamelijk hard zadel, maar heel handig. Eventjes een korte gewendwording ten opzichte van mijn vorig zachtere zadel, maar het went rap.

innovative concept, worth testing!

- Astro Boy, 17 September, 2021

Requires a period of adaptation. All the weight is taken by the pins. You have to alternate back and forth to find your preferred position. I think a smaller width might suit me better.

Pros & Cons

quality finish and materials

Excellent saddle

- Bas, 25 August, 2021

Of course, a saddle remains very personal. I come from an Aliante and experience considerably more comfort with the tempo argo. This is mainly due to the "dead" feeling that is much less with this saddle. It is still a bit of a search for the right position, it is a very different saddle.

Pros & Cons

Comfortable on long trips
Not expensive
Searching for the right position
Slightly slippery

Good but too wide

- Cassandre, 19 July, 2021

For women: the saddle removes all pain thanks to the hole in the middle of the saddle BUT causes pain on the back of the thighs because the edges of the back of the saddle are too wide ......

Sturdy fine saddle for long rides.

- Paul, 15 July, 2021

On my sporty e-bike it is very nice to have a good saddle, I regularly sit on the bike for hours at a time. Am very happy with my purchase.

To recommend

- Bernd, 24 February, 2021

So far no problems with the saddle, bought for the Smarttrainer. 2.5 hrs rides no problem. Tightly padded but is comfortable to ride and you sit defined.

Pros & Cons

80-100 km on ZWIFT pleasant to ride
Cushioning tight but comfortable
Short nose noticeably relieves perineal area
Upgrade would be a rounded nose

Hard but comfortable.

- Hans, 22 February, 2021

The seat seems a bit hard at the beginning, but that gives after the first few kilometers. The seat is definitely suitable for longer tours.

Pros & Cons

Comfortable
Light
A little slippery

Fits like Ar... on bucket!

- Thomas, 27 January, 2021

The Fizik fits perfectly in the 160mm to my rear end and provides great halt in all directions. The recess relieves perfectly all sensitive parts. In the version R5 a good price-performance ratio.

Pros & Cons

Good grip

Very good!

- RiP, 21 December, 2020

Initial impressions are very good, not used yet on rides over 2 hours, but I like it very much. Hard (in a good way) and very suportive, I'm enjoying its shape very much. This model will go to my gravel bike and I already have plans to order the R3 model for my road bike.

Top saddle because of its length and recess, however, too hard for the sit bones

- Lisa, 4 December, 2020

Top saddle because of the length and cutout: vthe saddle is short which allows you to maintain more flexibility and apply more power. However, I found it too hard on my sit bones. I think this is due to the fact that I am rather squeamish in that area and for others it may not be a problem at all. In case you only do 1 ride a week, I'm sure it doesn't pose a problem. The recess further ensures that you do not get saddle pain in the wrong places, this made cycling pleasant again for me.

Pros & Cons

Appearance: beautiful saddle
Cutout
Length: short

Great saddle as recommended by the fizik website and Mantel's tool.

- Glenn, 27 July, 2020

I have previously suffered from numbness on anything more than short rides. However, having finally measured my sit bone width and gone to a wider saddle, no more numbness. Great investment.
