Fizik Terra Argo X5 160mm Saddle

Fizik Terra Argo X5 Gravel Saddle 160mm, Black. Fizik reference: 70E2S00A13A22

A gravel-specific saddle with a short nose and a combination of a carbon-reinforced nylon shell and S-Alloy rails that adapt to the ride.

INCREASED STABILITY

While a traditional saddle shape encourages riders to frequently shift positions for better leverage, the Argo puts riders in a more stable position, resulting in greater stability and better weight distribution. The Terra Argo's short length allows riders to sit further forward without putting undue pressure on sensitive areas. It also features an ergonomic cut that was developed through detailed pressure analysis and expert medical input.

GRAVEL-SPECIFIC SADDLE

The Argo is our most versatile saddle shape, with each version accommodating different riding styles. As a gravel-specific option, the Terra Argo has been designed with a shell that conforms to offer a degree of flexibility. This controlled elasticity absorbs vibrations and road chatter, providing the comfort needed for long-distance riding on unpaved roads.

STABILITY AND RESPONSIVENESS

To better support the Terra Argo's flexible shell, we used our closed-loop Mobius rail system for increased structural stability and responsiveness. The Terra Argo features a wavy profile to provide the lumbar support needed for long rides and to help riders maintain their position while climbing on loose terrain. The same goes for the drop-nose design that allows riders to rotate their pelvis while pushing the toe forward for better traction and power transfer.

LONG DISTANCE COMFORT

The padding is made with fizik's proprietary Type 2 foam formula, slightly thicker around the sit bone area to support a more upright riding posture. The padding is slightly softer and more progressive than the type we use in our racing saddles, providing greater comfort over long distances.
