Fizik Adaptive 3D-printed padding is finally expanding to the Argo family, creating the perfect match for those who want exceptional, long-lasting comfort on a versatile platform that provides both stability and balance.

 
 

3D-printed padding

The evolution of digital 3D printing has allowed us 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. DLS is an additive manufacturing process which uses digital ultraviolet light projection, oxygen permeable optics and programmable liquid resins to produce parts with excellent mechanical properties, resolution, and surface finish.

 
 
fizik-vento-argo-adaptive-R3-versatile-lightweight-racing-saddle

Tailored zonal cushioning

Using Carbon technology, biomechanics and engineers have an unprecedented possibility: to design and manufacture multiple functional zones within the saddle, tuning each of them separately for specific mechanical properties. Each of these key functional zones is engineered for a distinctive cushioning and mechanical response, joined together progressively and seamlessly in the same padding. The result? A 60% reduction in peak pressure through improved weight distribution for increased comfort across the entire saddle surface.

 
 

Argo for all roads

Our most versatile saddle shape, Argo is at home on a variety of bike and surface types. Whether rolling on smooth tarmac or navigating technical terrain, Argo is engineered to help riders find a better posture, putting them in a more planted position for greater stability and improved weight distribution. Additionally, the shorter, drop-nose design provides superior support when adopting a powerful, aerodynamic pedaling position.

 
 
fizik-vento-argo-adaptive-R3-cut-out-short-nosed-saddle

Design, test, ride

To develop the ideal Adaptive comfort zones, we studied the various riding positions and pressure points of professional cyclists and amateur riders alike, both in the fizik labs and out on open roads, gravel tracks and trails. During each development phase, new iterations were carefully tested with great focus put on understanding how pressure patterns change according to different bike geometries, riding positions, and surface types.

 
 

Long-lasting performance

The saddle is very easy to clean. Even with the filthiest road muck, gravel dust, or trail spray, all you need to do is simply hose it off with water. Whatever gets in, comes out. We’ve put it through the most severe tests, simulating accelerated weathering, UV aging and wear resistance by following strict protocols.

Got it and rode a 25 mile ride. Was a little too high and it caused a sore under my sit bones. I lowered it a half inch and rode 75 miles and had no issue, even with the saddle sore still there. Fingers crossed this will help with the sores I was getting with my leather saddle before.

This is the most comfortable saddle I have ever tried. I've been riding it since late 12/2022 and can confirm that this is the best adaptive saddle out there. I feel planted, well supported and without any pressure point at all after 3h indoor riding. Truly masterpiece.

I just could not get comfortable on this saddle. I moved it around in every way imaginable. I also adjusted the seat post, but nothing worked. I came from a Specialized Power, and this is just a little wider and the 3D honeycomb does not allow for much movement on the saddle without making a conscious decision to move around. I developed some sores after a few days of use.

I've only taken this on one ride so far; a 100km climbing route. Overall it feels similar in shape to the standard Vento Argo R1. The Adaptive technology is quite neat to feel and look at. There are zones that are softer and harder depending on where you are sitting. I had been struggling with pain on my sit bones lately on my usual saddle. Moving to the Vento Argo Adaptive solved the issue and was comfortable over a 4 hour ride. I also have the standard Vento Argo on another bike in the same size; the Adaptive version can feel narrower at times depending on where you sit.
