Fizik Aliante Braided Carbon Rail Twin Flex Saddle

Like many cyclists, I tried several saddles before I found one that worked for me. My first Aliante was so much more comfortable than any saddle I had tried before I was actually amazed at the difference. The Aliante has a scalloped shape which spreads the pressure across a larger area than many saddles. The nose is quite narrow reducing the potential for chafing. The padding is relatively thin, but the saddle structure is a flexible carbon fiber which does a great job of shock absorption without the problems associated with thickly padded saddles.

Every now and then, I try another saddle just to see what it's like, but I always come back to this one.

If you like to move around a lot on your saddle and are looking for a saddle with several different seating positions, this isn't the best choice. But if you tend to sit in more-or-less the same position as you ride, this is a very comfortable saddle.

This saddle is wonderful. It has made riding a lot more enjoyable. Sure its an expensive saddle, but its worth every penny because you don't have to think about trying to find a comfortable position during your rides. Make sure you spend some time dialing it in. You wont be dissapointed.
