Fizik Vento Argo R5 140mm Saddle

Fizik Vento Argo R5 140mm road saddle, black. Fizik reference: 70D7S00A23A22

A high-performance racing saddle that combines a carbon-reinforced nylon shell and S-Alloy rails.

VENTO ARGO R5 is a high-performance racing saddle with a short nose design that improves stability and allows for a more aggressive and aerodynamic riding position.

While the traditional saddle shape encourages riders to change their position frequently for better leverage, the Argo places the rider in a more planted position, resulting in greater stability and better weight distribution. The short length of the Vento Argo allows the rider to sit further forward without putting undue pressure on sensitive tissues.

It also features an ergonomic cutout that was developed using detailed pressure analysis and input from medical experts. Argo is our most versatile saddle shape and each version suits different riding styles. As a racing option, the Vento Argo has been designed to provide a riding feel that suits racing bikes with aggressive geometry.

The padding is made from Fizik's proprietary Type 1 foam formulation, which has a lower profile and is responsive and springy for instant response and optimal power transfer.

The purposeful shape of its design helps you achieve a better riding posture: the dropped nose supports the pubic ramus when the pelvis rotates forward to add power or gain more aerodynamics.

Argo is a product of the Fizik Concepts program, an interdisciplinary collaboration of academics and industry-leading experts who conduct research and analysis on bicycle technology, design, physiology and fit in search of ways to improve cycling performance.
