VERSUS saddles incorporate a pressure relief area into the most popular Spine Concept shapes. Fi'zi:k believe comfort is achieved by optimising the seating surface area & that full cutout designs decrease seating surface & support. VERSUS saddles have the same surface area as the corresponding solid surface saddles. VERSUS saddles use the same base as the current road saddles to maintain structural integrity. Saddles with cutouts have a weaker base structure, & begin to flex & sag immediately in use. VERSUS saddles use the optimum ergonomic channel shape to ensure pressure relief & support without involving the sharp edges common in cut-out saddles. Super comfortable Aliante with VERSUS pressure relief channel. . ...

Versus X took the pressure relief chancel concept of fi’zi:k’s successful Versus saddles & expanded it further with a channel design that has a smoother, more ergonomically-shaped profile that improves comfort & relieves the sensation of pressure. Versus X feature a channel width up to 30mm & depth up to 20mm for optimum pressure relief.NEW for 2016 – the foam compound is softer & the edges of the channel are more rounded. The Aliante VS X Braided’s carbon braided rail reduces weight & increases saddle stiffness. Aliante VS X is for The Bull: Rigid Spine. If you have a relatively low degree of spinal flexibility (more than 90 degrees between your straight legs & back when bending over as far as you can, keeping your legs straight a shoulders’ width apart), you are a Bull. Your degree of Spinal flexibility will top out quite quickly when attempting to adopt the performance position. For this reason you will rotate you pelvis fully. You will benefit from the increased curvature (support) of the Aliante 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. Shell: Nylon Carbon Reinforced Rail: Carbon Braided 7x 9mm Cover: Thermowelded Black/ Black Microtex Padding: Low Density Foam with 20mm Extra Pressure Relief Channel Scuff guards on either side towards rear of saddle Integrated Clip System: Yes Length: 265mm

The 00 product designation is a uniquely special badge, reserved for only the very best fi’zi:k products. Every 00 saddle is conceived & designed with a no-compromise approach to create the ultimate saddle. The Antares is 1 of fi’zi:k’s 3 Spine Concept™ Mens Road Saddle shapes. Of these 3, the Antares shape is wide & slightly curved in profile. The Antares 00 (00 meaning “the top” in Italian) is the top-of-the-line saddle available in this shape. The high-modulus carbon shell with Wing Flex™ & Mobius™ carbon braided rail (NEW for 2016) make this the lightest & most stiff Antares model available. Despite the saddle’s very low weight, special 00 foam compound ensures that comfort is not compromised. Antares 00 is for The Chameleon: Medium Spine. If you have an intermediate degree of spinal flexibility (approximately 90 degrees between your straight legs & 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 & slight curvature of the Antares shape. Shell: High Modulus 00 Carbon, Wing Flex™ for freedom of thigh movement Rail: Mobius™ Carbon Braided 7x 9mm Integrated Clip System: No Length: 275mm
