PERFORMANCE CHOSEN BY THE PROS
As part of the new generation of Antares saddles, theFizik Antares Vento R3 Saddleretains many of the iconic design features that made the original a favorite among top athletes.
POWER TRANSFER
Antares is a low-profile saddle with a transition from the nose to the wing that helps deliver efficient pedaling in all riding positions. Whether you’re attacking a climb or maintaining your pace on flat terrain, this saddle is designed to support you. Forward and backward movements are made easier thanks to a flatter, slightly wider nose that acts as an optimal base from which to generate power.
PRESSURE RELIEF
Antares features an ergonomic cutout, developed through detailed pressure analysis and input from medical experts, which helps relieve pressure and promote blood flow. In addition, the low-profile padding is designed with dual-density foam—firmer over the sit bones and softer at the nose—to provide every rider with the right support, regardless of riding position, without creating undue pressure.
