Description

Versatile shot-nose saddle for a more aero riding position

VENTO ARGO R3 is a performance racing saddle with a short-nose design that improves stability and allows for a more aggressive, aero riding position.

Where a traditional saddle shape encourages riders to shift their position frequently for better leverage, Argo puts the rider in a more planted position, making for greater stability and better weight distribution.

Vento Argo's short length allows the rider to sit further forward without placing 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 fizik's most versatile saddle shape and each version suits different riding styles.

As the racing option, Vento Argo has been engineered to deliver a riding feel that suits race bikes with aggressive geometry. The padding is made from fizik's proprietary Type 1 foam formulation, which has a lower profile and is reactive and springy for instantaneous 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 to get more aero.

A product of the fizik Concepts program, Argo is a cross-disciplinary collaboration of leading industry experts and academics carrying out research and analysis on technology, design, physiology, and bike-fitting in search of ways to improve cycling performance.


Features & Specs:

  • Argo: versatile short-nose saddle that encourages stability and relieves pressure on soft tissue area
  • R3: a combination of a ride-compliant carbon reinforced nylon shell and a Kium hollow rail with high strength-to-weight ratio
  • Type 1 foam: low profile, reactive and springy for efficient power transfer

Best saddle so far.

I've tried all the different Argos Fizik makes. This saddle has the right padding and shape to be the most comfortable saddle I have used in over 40 years of riding.

Solid saddle

I have long used a Fizik Arione and I have been looking to replace it with an open concept saddle. This has been a good replacement. A little broader in the back than the Arione but the nose works similarly to the Arione minus the pressure. I find the material a bit too big in some places for me but part of this is adaptation. I'd recommend this as a good choice, fit dependent
