Fizik Vento Arione R5 Saddle

Description

The Return of an Icon

The Fizik Vento Arione R5 is a balanced and supportive racing saddle designed with a flat profile and streamlined shape. As the longest saddle in their lineup, Arione allows for considerable fore-to-aft movement, letting riders find their ideal power and comfort centers while reducing pressure in the most aerodynamic riding positions. In this configuration, Arione R5 provides lasting support, complete with a carbon-reinforced nylon shell to save weight and ultra-durable S-Alloy rail.

One of fizik's most iconic saddles returns with a modern evolution of its legendary design. Known for its sleek silhouette and flat profile, Arione has long been the choice of pro racers and ambitious riders seeking speed, now reimagined with contemporary materials and advanced construction methods. It's the comeback of a classic, made for the modern road.

Targeted Relief, Stable Ride

Arione features an ergonomic cutout, developed using detailed pressure analysis and input from medical experts, that helps to relieve pressure and facilitate blood flow. Additionally, the padding is made from Fizik's proprietary Type 1 foam: a low-profile, reactive formulation that delivers springy support for an instant response and optimal power transfer with every pedal stroke.
