With an anatomic cut-out shape and advanced technology, materials and craft, this is a leading performance road seat for riders who want a waved saddle profile and a pressure relief channel. Made for riders with low body flexibility and high pelvic rotation while pedaling, the Fizik Aliante R1 Open saddle provides support and flexibility so you can ride in comfortable support and always get the power down. It features a composite carbon-reinforced nylon shell and a light, strong, braided carbon rail. A Comfort Core foam layer beneath the neat, durable Microtex cover provides comfort, and is enhanced by the full anatomic cut-out which avoids pressure on the rider’s sensitive soft tissue and ensures that all weight is correctly supported across the whole surface of the saddle. Like all performance Fizik road saddles, Aliante R1 Open is light, flexible and agile. It's designed for pros, with pros and raced by pros.
Within Fizik’s Spine Concept system this saddle is categorised as a "Chameleon" type. This means its designed for those who have medium spine flexibility and who’s pelvises have a low amount of rotation when pedalling. Advanced Construction The shell is manufactured using a nylon that’s reinforced with carbon fibre. This keeps the weight low and allows just enough flex to allow your pelvis to obtain its natural movement range, maximising pedalling efficiency. Finishing off the Antares R3 Open is high-quality Comfort Core foam and a super-durable Microtex cover.
Within Fizik’s Spine Concept system, this saddle is categorised as a "Bull" type which means it’s designed for those with less flexibility in their spines and who’s pelvises rotate a lot when pedalling. Advanced Construction The Aliante R3 boasts corrosion-resistant K:ium rails, which are lightweight and strong and a nylon base that’s reinforced with carbon fibre. This design provides a platform that ensures outstanding pedalling efficiency and durability. Finally, the base is covered with Comfort Core foam and a tough Microtex cover.

Aliante 00 (00 meaning “the top” in Italian) is the top-of-the-line saddle available in this shape. The high-modulus carbon shell with Wing Flex™ and Mobius™ carbon braided rail make this the lightest and most stiff Aliante model available. Despite the saddle’s very low weight, the special 00 foam compound ensures that comfort is not compromised. Aliante 00 is for The Bull: Rigid Spine. 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. Your degree of Spinal flexibility will top out quite quickly when attempting to adopt the performance position. For this reason, you will rotate your pelvis fully. You will benefit from the increased curvature (support) of the Aliante shape.
The 00 product designation is a uniquely special badge, reserved for only the very best fi’zi:k products. Every 00 saddle is conceived and designed with a no-compromise approach to create the ultimate saddle. The Arione is 1 of fi’zi:k’s 3 Spine Concept™ Mens Road Saddle shapes. Of these 3, the Arione shape is flat, narrow and long. In certain respects, the launch of the original Arione in 2003 was the end of an era for black, non-descript functional-looking racing saddles. Fi’zi:k redefined the racing saddle category by introducing elegant products that were not only comfortable but also a source of beauty in their own right. The Arione shape has become a World bestseller. High-Quality Pro-Level Performance and Comfort The Arione 00 (00 meaning “the top” in Italian) is the top-of-the-line saddle available in this shape. The high-modulus carbon shell with Wing Flex and Mobius carbon braided rail make this the lightest and most stiff Arione model available. Despite the saddle’s very low weight, the special 00 foam compound ensures that comfort is not compromised. Arione 00 is for The Snake: Flexible Spine. 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 achieve the performance position using your spinal flexibility alone, not rotating your pelvis at all. You will like the flat, narrow and long shape of the Arione.
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).

The Fizik Aliante Gamma Kium saddle is a contemporary saddle for those riders who know just what they want.
Weight: 52g (each rol
A 0.7mm layer of thermoformed carbon is overinjected with a carbon reinforced Nylon to create the shell, which includes WING FLEX™ and TAIL FLEX™ technologies. EVA foam provides support and comfort, while a Microtex cover with Cordura protection guarantees durability and abrasion resistance. Combined with a braided carbon fibre rail, these next gen technologies, brings the overall weight of the Gobi M1 to a low 155g. Carbon Braided Rails Rather than a conventional solid or tubular rail, fi'zi:k's rails use an outer sleeve of braided carbon fibers forming a tube, with the void inside being filled by unidirectional carbon fibers. This construction is strong, light and stiff. Wing Flex Technology Wing Flex shell has engineered flexibility along the edges where the inner thighs contact the saddle. By allowing this area to flex, the rider can achieve a full range of leg movement in a wide range of riding positions. Wing Flex allows the saddle to adapt to the rider rather than the rider having to get used to the saddle.
A Simple silicon ring that fits around your seatpost to add an extra touch of colour to your bike. Also helps reduce water and dirt ingress into the seat tube, as well as marking saddle height.
The Antares 00 (00 meaning "the top" in Italian) is the top-of-the-line saddle available in this shape. The high-modulus carbon shell with Wing Flex™ and Mobius™ carbon braided rail (NEW for 2016) make this the lightest and most stiff Antares model available. Despite the saddle’s very low weight, special 00 foam compound ensures that comfort is not compromised. Antares 00 is for The Chameleon: Medium Spine. 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. Your degree of spinal flexibility helps you so far, before you need to rotate your pelvis slightly to achieve fully the performance position. You will benefit from the increased width and slight curvature of the Antares shape.
The material used will not harden, break down or migrate and will help dampen road vibration transmitted through the bars to your hands. This makes the Fizik Bar Gel set the ideal addition to your road bike.
A shoe where comfort and power excel, the R3 Infinito Shoes are perfect for athletes who don’t have a second to spare. Offering a quick transition from water to the bike, they sport a quick foot entry and a simple loop at the back to get you in the saddle quicker. The instep Powerstrap can be locked in the wide-open position ready for your changeover while the shoes easily clip into the pedals to get your cadence up to speed immediately. For those concerned about breathability, the R3 certainly has you covered. The mesh upper vents and supports to wick away moisture should you start to build up a sweat. Eliminating the need for socks, you can shave seconds off your personal best and the lightweight design ensures you won’t feel weighed down. Set the Pace Designed for riders that like to dictate the pace, Fizik’s Transiro R3 Infinito Shoes sport a PU lamination that directs every last drop of power from your legs directly to the pedals. This works in tandem with the stiff R3 unidirectional full carbon outsole that blasts power to the bike, modified with an extra wide ventilation cutout to make it more breathable than the brand’s road version. Outstanding Comfort Now performance and ventilation have been covered, it’s time to talk comfort. The Transiro R3 Infinito has a reputation for its cosy technology, starting off with the volume control system. This fine piece of craftsmanship allows for a differentiated fit adjustment to the instep and forefoot areas, a volume that can vary with all types of cyclists. The powerstrap and BOA dial work together to provide customisable comfort on the go and make the shoe perfect for Olympic distances, securing your comfort faster than ever before. Riders can also control their volume thanks to the Infinito, the brand’s signature fit adjustment feature. It relieves the tension often found at the bridge of the foot and eliminates pressure hot spots via the textile webbing. Substituting the plastic lace guides, this closure system works around the larger area of the shoe’s upper to pull it inwards, providing a higher degree of balance and support.
Strap in and set off! The Tempo R5 Powerstrap Road Shoes secure your foot to offer stability and comfort throughout your ride. Utilising a Velcro strap, the Powerstrap design pulls together the two sides of the upper to give a superbly snug and comfortable fit. Ensuring the need for no laces and hugging your foot throughout, there is no need to adjust the setting of the shoe while the ribbon wraps around your foot for unrivalled comfort. Working in tandem with Fizik’s Volume Control, the instep and midfoot adjust to your liking separately for compression and customisation. Another advantage of the sleek fit and design is the ease with which you can slip on waterproof overshoes when the storm clouds burst - these don't have to be a summer-only shoe. When it comes to performance, putting your trust in the R5 nylon composite outsole may just be the best decision you ever make. It delivers the perfect balance between comfort and pedalling efficiency and makes the most of powerful riders to directly transfer explosive speed to your pedals. It is ever so supple for long distances and the overall lightweight design of the shoe ensures speed isn’t compromised.
