The application of The Spine Concept™ to handlebar shape is the result of fi’zi:k’s research with riders of 3 UCI World Tour Teams that were riding fi’zi:k saddles. A correlation was found between the saddle shape each rider was using and the handlebar shape they were riding. Just as your choice of fi’zi:k Spine Concept™ saddle shape is guided by your degree of spinal flexibility and subsequent pelvic rotation, fi’zi:k offers this same concept to find your most comfortable handlebar shape. The Snake Handlebar: If you are very spinally flexible (far less than 90 degrees between your straight legs and your back when bending over as far as you can, keeping your legs straight a shoulders’ width apart), you are a Snake. You are better able to reach further and get down lower to use the full radius of more rounded, classic-style, deeper-drop handlebars. You will prefer the Snake Handlebar because it has a longer reach (85mm) and deeper, classic-style drop (140mm). The Chameleon Handlebar: If you have an intermediate degree of spinal flexibility (approximately 90 degrees between your straight legs and your back when bending over as far as you can, keeping your legs straight a shoulders’ width apart), you are a chameleon. You are better able to reach further, but perhaps you can’t get down quite as low on the handlebar drops as a Snake would be able to. You will prefer the Chameleon Handlebar because it has a longer reach (85mm) but a shallower, more ergonomic-style drop (135mm). The Bull Handlebar: If you have a relatively low degree of spinal flexibility (more than 90 degrees between your straight legs and back when bending over as far as you can, keeping your legs straight a shoulders’ width apart), you are a Bull. You will not be able to reach as far or bend as low as a Snake or a Chameleon would be able to. You will prefer the Bull Handlebar because it has a shorter reach (80mm) and a shallower, more ergonomic-style handlebar drop (130mm). Please Note: Your shoulder width should determine your handlebar width, choose from the following centre-centre
Following our extensive research project fi’z:k undertook a whole new construction for the ultimately comfortable, high-performing women’s saddle, Luce. It has a wider sitting area shape narrowing down toward the nose for better weight distribution and less friction on the thighs. Luce Carbon Large is a wider option, to accommodate the best fit for all women cyclists, with a maximum width of 155mm To create a shape for truly comfortable high-performance long rides, we made the strong, light shell from three separate sections: a carbon reinforced nylon spine co-injected with two very flexible, strong panels made from a thermoplastic elastomer. We built the Luce Carbon Large on narrow carbon Mobius rail construction, accommodating a specially designed elongated pressure relief cut out, offering a combination of flexible support – called IschialFlex - under the sit-bones and comfortable freedom for the rider’s soft tissues. This unique shape that provides a perfect profile for female cyclists and maintains structural stability over time. Luce Carbon Large - made for women - has a maximum width of 155mm and weighs just 185g.
Fizik Luce Carbon SaddleFizik's extensive R&D project has proudly produced the pinnacle women's saddle: Luce Carbon. This Fizik Luce Carbon Saddle retains the gold standard of high-performance, as you now expect, whilst adding supreme comfort into the equation. This has been achieved by producing the Luce Carbon Saddle with a wider sitting area, narrowing toward the nose. This design encourages ideal balance for weight distribution and reduces friction on the thighs.†Comfortable, Lightweight, and StrongA desire to deliver the strongest saddle without detracting from rider comfort led Fizik to infuse the Luce Carbon Saddle shell with three separate sections: the carbon reinforced nylon spline is injected with two very flexible, strong panels which are made from a thermoplastic elastomer. Narrow carbon Mobius rails provide the base for this saddle. They are specifically designed for the pressure relief cut out. This has a dual purpose: to offer flexible support - known as IschialFlex - under the sit-bones; and, comfortable freedom for your soft tissues. Whether you're getting race ready or simply love long days in the saddle, the Luce Carbon Saddle provides unparalleled comfort to help you chew through the miles.Uniquely designed to embrace the profile of female cyclists, the Luce Carbon Saddle will maintain its structural integrity over time. The icing on the cake is that this saddle weights a meagre 175g.†Fizik's handy spine concept evo app tests your flexibility to ensure you get the perfect saddle.

Cyrano is fizik’s range of cockpit components, comprising handlebars, stems and seatposts. Handlebars are highly-stressed, safety-critical parts, making strength and fatigue resistance of paramount importance. Low weight is of course also a priority. Cyrano handlebars are available in three models, according to material specification, and in three shapes to fit different rider physiques. Each shape is carefully designed to give easy transitions between different riding positions – tops, hoods and drops. The range of nine fizik Cyrano handlebars models are each available in a choice of four widths, to ensure a perfect fit. The Cyrano R1 is the medium specification, made from High-Modulus carbon fiber. HM carbon bars can be made just as strong as HMUD carbon bars, but, requiring more material, carries a minor weight penalty over the range-topping Cyrano 00 model. The result is exceptionally strong, and very light. The Cyrano R1 Snake have the longest reach (85 mm) and deepest drop (140 mm), with a rounded curve than traditional bars. This shape allows highly flexible riders to adopt a low, flat-backed riding position with horizontal forearms.
Fizik Luce R1 Women's Road Bike SaddleWhen Fizik was creating the Luce R1 saddle, they constructed an all-new design in order to produce a women's saddle that offers outstanding performance and comfort over long distances.Advanced ShellThe shell of the Luce R1 combines three different sections, consisting of a central nylon spine that's reinforced with carbon fibre and two thermoplastic elastomers. This ensures the Luce R1 provides the ideal mix of low weight, strength and flexibility.Central Cut-outAnother great feature of the shell is that it has a long central cut-out. Fizik calls this its IschialFlex technology, as it provides flexible support for the sit bone area. It also reduces pressure on sensitive areas so you can enjoy consistent comfort even on the longest rides.Carbon Fibre RailsIn addition to the highly-advanced shell, this saddle features a narrow carbon Mobius rail construction. These rails don't just reduce the overall weight, they maximise power transfer and dampen vibrations from the road.Spine Concept EvoThis saddle is available in two different sizes.
