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.
Arione R3 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. Shell: Carbon Thermoplastic Composite with Wing Flex™ for freedom of thigh movement.
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.
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.
Designed to take you beyond your boundaries, this Terra series gravel bike saddle is kitted out with a high-quality carbon reinforced nylon shell that ensures maximum durability and strength without adding any excess grams to your ride. Fizik has also equipped this model with Wingflex technology at the edges of its shell, so riders can benefit from supportive flexibility that adapts to their inner leg movement. This controlled elasticity absorbs road chatter and vibrations, delivering the comfort needed for long-distance riding over mixed terrains and unpaved roads. With the addition of hollow K:ium rails that use a Mobius closed-loop design, this saddle provides extra strength and weight distribution, making it a reliable and stable choice of upgrade for wherever your next gravel adventure leads you. Greater Stability Where a traditional saddle shape encourages riders to shift their position frequently for better leverage, the Argo puts riders in a more planted position, making for greater stability and better weight distribution. The Terra Argo’s short length allows riders to sit further forward without placing undue pressure on sensitive areas. It also features an ergonomic cut-out that was developed using detailed pressure analysis and input from medical experts. Stability and Responsiveness To better support the Terra Argo’s flexible shell, Fizik used its closed-loop Mobius rail system for increased structural stability and responsiveness. The Terra Argo features a waved profile to provide the lower-back support necessary for long rides and to help riders hold their position while climbing on loose terrain. The same goes for the dropped-nose design which allows riders to rotate their pelvis while pushing forward on the nose for better traction and power transfer. Long Distance Comfort The padding is made from Fizik’s proprietary Type-2 foam formulation, slightly thicker around the ischial sit bones area to support a more upright riding posture. The cushioning is slightly softer and more progressive than the type used on the brand's racing saddles, providing more long-distance comfort. Technologies: Argo: Versatile short-nose saddle that encourages stability and relieves pressure on sensitive areas. X3: A combination of a ride-compliant, carbon reinforced nylon shell and a Kium hollow rail with a high strength-to-weight ratio. Mobius Rail: Closed-loop design for added strength and weight distribution. Wingflex: The shell's side edges flex and adapt to a rider's inner leg movement. Type 2 Foam: Progressive cushioning, with a lower compression modulus. Terra: All-terrain series designed to take you beyond your boundaries. Concepts: This is a product of the Fizik Concepts programme, a cross-disciplinary collaboration of leading industry experts and academics carrying out research and analysis on technology, design, physiology and bike-fitting in search of ways to improve cycling performance.
