ANTARES

A winning name in the fizik saddle family for over two decades, Antares R1 Light represents the latest step in an ongoing victorious lineage. With its low profile and strong nose-to-wing transition, Antares allows for a wide range of fore-to-aft movement, presented in a Light version that blends weight-saving EVA padding with carbon rails and a carbon-reinforced nylon shell for uncompromising racing performance.

R1 LIGHT CONSTRUCTION

Engineered for low weight and high-performance riding, R1 Light construction combines a carbon-reinforced nylon shell with ultra-stiff carbon rails for a responsive, lightweight platform. Injected EVA padding delivers low-profile, reactive cushioning that maintains comfort and support without sacrificing the ergonomic shape or increasing thickness. The result: a saddle that reduces weight without compromise—ideal for long, fast days on the saddle.

PERFORMANCE CHOSEN BY THE PROS
