fizik has expanded its 3D-printed saddle offering with the introduction of the new Antares Adaptive, now available in R1 and R3 models.
Designed for riders seeking a performance saddle that doesn’t sacrifice comfort, the iconic Antares has appeared in nearly every Grand Tour of the last two decades. It is a proven winner and saddle of choice for the likes of Team Visma | Lease a Bike and Movistar Team.
Power Transfer and Pressure Relief
fizik’s Adaptive 3D-printed padding has now expanded to the Antares family, creating a platform for riders who want exceptional, long-lasting comfort on a low-profile performance saddle designed to allow a more connected feeling for optimal pedaling efficiency and power transfer.
Tailored Zonal Cushioning
The evolution of digital 3D printing has allowed fizik to develop a new saddle without the constraints or limitations imposed by traditional production methods and materials. The Adaptive saddle padding is crafted by Carbon® using their revolutionary Digital Light Synthesis™ technology.
By using Carbon®’s technology, biomechanics and engineers, fizik has been able to incorporate multiple functional zones within the saddle, tuning each of them in turn for specific mechanical properties.
