VS saddles feature a 7mm channel design that allows for greater pressure relief, whilst maintaining the stiffness and durability of a solid-base saddle. Solid base ensures saddle's structural integrity is unaffected. No reduction in saddle's surface area, therefore no subsequent increase in pressure. Relief channel spans the length of the saddle, allowing the rider freedom to move along it. Edge of relief channel is a gradual change in the foam mould leaving no sharp edges that might cause pressure points. Antares VS is for The Chameleon: Medium Spine. If you have an intermediate degree of spinal flexibility (approximately 90 degrees between your straight legs and your back when bending over as far as you can, keeping your legs straight a shoulders' width apart), you are a chameleon. Your degree of spinal flexibility helps you so far, before you need to rotate your pelvis slightly to achieve fully the performance position. You will benefit from the increased width and slight curvature of the Antares shape. Provided this saddle's width isn't too narrow for them, some women may find this model comfortable due to the presence of the relief channel.

The #1 choice among Pro Ironman Athletes. The Mens Arione Triathlon-specific saddle shape, called K- in reverence to Kona, feature additional nose padding, a seamless front cover for smooth transitions up and down the saddle and grippy dots to prevent unwanted movement.

If you are training for Kona, or just like to take part in your local triathlons, the Fizik Arione K5 will take all the best bits of your favorite Arione saddle and add some extra touches that will keep you comfy even for long stretches on your aero bars. The Arione K5 has been designed to keep your package in the aero position more comfortable, so Fizik has added padding at the nose to cushion you just that bit more. The same Microtex material is used to wrap the shell, though the seams have been completely reworked; no longer do you have the two seams running lengthwise, but rather the Microtex is stretched seamless from the nose to the rear quarter of the saddle. That will prevent friction from developing when you are sliding up and down the nose of the saddle while time trialling. Grippy silicon dots have been placed at the nose of the K5 so that once you have found your desired position, you won’t have to worry about unwanted movement from slipping around. Long, narrow, and sleek, the Arione K5 is perfect for fit and flexible 300-mile-a-weekers, while still being supple and forgiving enough for the occasional weekend warrior who hasn’t touched his toes in years. Though Fizik does try to help guide customers with their Spine Concept, don’t rule the Arione out just because you are honest enough with yourself to admit you probably don’t bend as well as you used to. The comfort in the saddle comes primarily from the WingFlex that the carbon reinforced nylon shell provides. The WingFlex on either side of the saddle moves with your legs pedaling motion to give just when and where you need it, but without sacrificing any of the support you need while putting the power down to your pedals. This design forces the saddle to adapt to the rider rather than the rider having to adapt to the saddle, which is one major reason why so many different rider types fit the Arione. For the K5 version of the Arione, the K:IUM rails are used. K:IUM is Fizik’s proprietary metal alloy, the exact formulation of which they understandably keep close to their chest. However, they have given it a tubular design and a particular finishing process that is intended to reduce potential fatigue of the rail surface. On top of that it offers an 8% weight reduction from the titanium rails we saw on earlier Fiziks, giving the k:ium rails an astounding strength to weight ratio. Just because Fizik coded the K5 for triathlete or time trial use, you are free to consider it for your road bike as well if you feel the need for a touch more cushioning in the nether regions. The Fizik Arione K5 will be a classy comfy addition to your tri and road bike alike.

Versus X took the pressure relief chancel concept of fi'zi:k's successful Versus saddles and expanded it further with a channel design that has a smoother, more ergonomically-shaped profile that improves comfort and relieves the sensation of pressure. Versus X feature a channel width up to 30mm and depth up to 20mm for optimum pressure relief. NEW for 2016 – the foam compound is softer and the edges of the channel are more rounded. Arione VS X is for The Snake: Flexible Spine. If you are very spinally flexible (far less than 90 degrees between your straight legs and your back when bending over as far as you can, keeping your legs straight a shoulders' width apart), you are a Snake. You achieve the performance position using your spinal flexibility alone, not rotating your pelvis at all. You will like the flat, narrow and long shape of the Arione. Provided this saddle's width isn't too narrow for them, some women may find this model comfortable due to the presence of the relief channel. Shell: Nylon Carbon Reinforced with Wing Flex™ for freedom of thigh movement Rail: K:ium Cover: Thermowelded Black/Red Microtex Padding: Low Density Foam with 20mm Extra Pressure Relief Channel Integrated Clip System: Yes Length: 300mm Width: 128mm Weight: 250g
