Fizik Argo Tempo R5 Bicycle Saddle

A versatile endurance racing bicycle saddle with a combination of a riding-appropriate carbon reinforced nylon shell and an S-alloy rail. The Tempo Argo R5 is a versatile endurance road saddle with a short nose and generous seat support for stability. Where a traditional saddle shape encourages riders to frequently shift positions for better leverage, the Argo places the rider in a more stable position, providing greater stability and better weight distribution. The short length of the Tempo Argo allows the rider to sit further forward without putting undue pressure on sensitive tissues. It also features an ergonomic cutout that was designed using detailed pressure analysis and advice from medical experts. The Argo is our most versatile saddle, and each version is suitable for different riding styles.. As an endurance riding option, the Tempo Argo has been designed to provide a riding feel that matches the balanced geometry of modern all-round road machines. The padding is made from Fizik's proprietary Type 2 foam, slightly thicker in the sit bone area to support a more upright riding posture. The cushioning is slightly softer and more progressive than what we use in our racing saddles, providing greater comfort when riding longer distances. Argo is a product of the Fizik Concepts program, a multidisciplinary collaboration of leading industry experts and scientists conducting research and analysis in the fields of bicycle technology, design, physiology and fit in search of ways to improve cycling performance.
