Fizik Vento Arione R1 Light

Fizik Vento Arione R1 Light cycling saddle

The Fizik Vento Arione R1 Light marks the return of an iconic saddle designed for cyclists seeking speed, freedom of movement, and an optimal aerodynamic position. With its signature flat profile, elongated shape, and lightweight construction, it caters to demanding riders, whether for road cycling or time trials.

Thanks to its low-profile injected EVA padding, carbon-reinforced nylon shell and 7x9 mm carbon rails, this saddle offers an excellent compromise between lightness, support and performance.

The return of a benchmark in the peloton

A true icon at Fizik , the Arione has long been the choice of many professional racers and performance-oriented cyclists.

Its slender silhouette and flat profile allow for great freedom of movement along the entire length of the saddle, ideal for adapting your position according to the intensity of the effort.

• iconic flat profile
• long and streamlined shape
• maximum freedom of movement
• ideal for speed

R1 Light construction: lightweight and responsive

The R1 Light construction was developed to offer reduced weight without compromising on rigidity or comfort.

The carbon-reinforced nylon shell provides excellent stability, while the ultra-stiff carbon rails enhance power transfer. The injected EVA padding maintains excellent comfort while minimizing bulk.

• carbon-reinforced nylon shell
• 7x9 mm carbon rails
• injected EVA foam
• lightweight and responsive platform

A saddle designed for speed

The Arione is the longest saddle in the Fizik range, allowing for a wide fore/aft movement to find the ideal zone of power and comfort.

This geometry is particularly suited to aggressive positions, long accelerations and efforts in an aerodynamic position.

• ideal for sprinting
• perfect for time trials
• optimized aerodynamic posture
• excellent mobility

Targeted relief and stability

The saddle incorporates an ergonomic opening developed from detailed pressure analyses and recommendations from medical experts.

This cut reduces pressure points and improves blood circulation, even during long rides in a low position.

The textured surface improves grip and limits unwanted movement for better stability while pedaling.

• ergonomic central opening
• pressure reduction
• non-slip surface
• enhanced stability

Compatible with rear accessories

The Arione R1 Light is compatible with an optional link allowing the integration of a bottle cage at the rear of the saddle, particularly interesting for certain triathlon or long distance configurations.

The rail insertion system also offers a wide range of adjustments to fine-tune the forward position.

• rear support compatibility
• wide adjustment range
• Suitable for triathlon use
• UCI compliant
