Fizik Arione R3 Colour Edition Saddle

Fizik Arione R3 Colour Edition Saddle

Boasting a microtex cover with an eye-catching coloured top, this limited edition saddle offers fantastic durability and style to complement your road bike. Ready for racing, its carbon thermoplastic composite shell also provides a comfortable and supportive platform without adding any unnecessary excess weight. Fizik has also equipped its shell with its renowned Wing Flex technology for increased flexibility along its edges where your inner thighs contact the saddle. As a result, it allows you to achieve a full range of leg movement in a wide range of riding positions, so you can really put your power down when needed. Coming complete with K:ium alloy rails holding you firmly to your seatpost, this is a great choice of upgrade for dependable performance, mile after mile.

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.

Technologies:

• Integrated Clip System: The Integrated Clip System (ICS) is an integrated interface in the saddle's base to allow quick attachment and removal of ICS accessories such as the Fi'zi:k saddle Pa:k and Blin:k light. It is a clean, easy, fast and secure attachment that does not require any tools.
• K:ium Rails: K:ium is a Fizik proprietary rail formulation. It's the combination of a particular metal alloy, a specific tubular design and a special finishing process that increases fatigue performance on the rail surface. Fact: 8% weight reduction compared to solid titanium. K:ium features a high strength-to-weight ratio grade and high corrosion resistance.
• 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.
