Fizik Antares R3 Braided Saddle

Fi'zik Antares R3 Braided Saddle

Pop quiz: what's more comfortable, a cushy or stiff saddle Sorry, trick question. It really depends on the ride, but if you're planning on spinning hard, grinding up long climbs, and powering through sprints, a stiffer saddle will provide more comfort, not to mention more speed. Fi'zi:k tuned the Antares R3 Saddle with Braided Carbon Rails to provide the optimal blend of stiffness, flex, and lightness, making it the choice for hard charging and flexible riders who dance around in the saddle like a little kid who has to pee. It's almost entirely flat from front to back, which a slightly rounded side to side shape that will support you no matter the position you assume. The shell, a blend of fiberglass, thermoplastic, and composite, moves as you do rather than assuming a permanently molded shape, and a thin layer of foam provides just enough cushioning to save your undercarriage on long and rough rides. Fi'zi:k employed its WingFlex technology at the sides of the Antares to provide flexibility during downstroke, and covered the whole thing with a durable and easy to maintain Microtex synthetic cover. Fi'zi:k opted to construct the rails from braided carbon fiber, which saves 30g over the company's proprietary K:ium alloy rails. The oval profile increases durability and a rough surface allows slip free clamping, so you can pedal hard every day without worrying about saddle slippage or rail stress.
