FIZIK ADAPTIVE R3 VS EVO SADDLE

FIZIK ADAPTIVE R3 VS EVO SADDLE

Fizik’s Adaptive R3 VS Evo Saddle takes advantage of the latest manufacturing technology to produce a saddle that is both light and comfortable. A 3D printed topside offers zonal cushioning areas of honeycomb-like carbon composite material which blend seamlessly into each other so that there is padding where needed without excess elsewhere. This padding sits on a compliant carbon-reinforced nylon shell which can bend and flex for added comfort and there is a full-length relief channel to avoid unnecessary pressure on soft tissue. 7mm Kium rails mean that the saddle doesn’t need a specific seatpost.
