Fizik Vento Antares Adaptive R1 Saddle - 140mm

The Fizik Vento Antares Adaptive R1 Saddle is a high-performance racing saddle with a streamlined shape, tapered profile, and advanced 3D-printed Adaptive padding for precise support and comfort. Its low-profile design supports efficient pedalling across multiple riding positions. The zonal cushioning system reduces pressure while maintaining a direct connection to the bike. A carbon rail construction keeps weight low without reducing strength. This saddle combines race-focused performance with long-ride comfort.Key Features and Benefits:Adaptive 3D-printed padding technology: This advanced padding is produced using Digital Light Synthesis to create a complex lattice structure. It allows precise control of cushioning density across the saddle, reducing peak pressure by up to 60%. The result is improved weight distribution, reduced discomfort, and consistent support over long distancesTuned zonal cushioning system: Multiple functional zones are engineered within the padding, each with specific mechanical properties. Firmer zones support power transfer while softer zones absorb pressure. This creates balanced support that reduces fatigue and maintains comfort throughout varied riding effortsLow-profile Antares shape with tapered transition: The flat profile and smooth nose-to-wing transition allow easy movement across the saddle. This supports efficient pedalling in both aggressive and neutral positions. The outcome is improved power delivery and consistent positioning during effortsCentral pressure relief without cut-out: A softer central zone replaces a traditional cut-out, spreading load more evenly across the saddle surface. This reduces pressure on sensitive areas while maintaining structural support. The result is sustained comfort without compromising stabilityLightweight carbon rail construction (7x9 mm): The redesigned carbon rails reduce overall saddle weight while maintaining high stiffness and durability. This improves bike responsiveness and efficiency, giving you a lighter setup without sacrificing strengthRiders looking for race-level efficiency often need a saddle that supports consistent power without causing pressure build-up. The Adaptive padding system works with the Antares shape to manage load across the entire contact area. This reduces pressure spikes while keeping a firm, responsive feel. The tapered design and stable platform allow you to hold position under effort, which supports sustained output across climbs, flats, and high-intensity riding.This saddle is built for riders who value efficiency, low weight, and long-ride comfort in one design. Its combination of advanced materials and proven shape makes it a reliable upgrade for performance-focused setups.Specifications:SIZE 140 mmLength: 267 mmWidth: 140 mmHeight at 75mm width: 50mmLength from nose to 75mm width: 147 mmWeight: 180 gRail: 7x9 mmSIZE 150 mm Length: 267 mmWidth: 150 mmHeight at 75mm width: 50 mmLength from nose to 75mm width: 147 mmWeight: 185 gRail: 7x9 mm
