Fizik Transiro Aeris Short Distance R1 Adaptive Saddle - Carbon, 135mm, Black

The Aeris short-distance saddle is designed to encourage maximum stability and support for time trialists and triathletes, featuring the revolutionary, 3D-printed Adaptive padding for seamlessly engineered zonal cushioning, improved comfort and greater stability. Thanks to its 3D-printed padding with engineered zonal cushioning, the Aeris short-distance Adaptive saddle ensures maximum stability and support for time trialists and triathletes requiring an optimal platform from which to produce power while in forward, aerodynamic riding positions. Aeris R1 Adaptive saves weight thanks to a newly designed 7x9 mm carbon rail. Fizik Adaptive 3D-printed padding has expanded to the Aeris family, creating the perfect match for those who want exceptional, long-lasting comfort on a triathlon bike saddle designed with a wider nose to provide greater support and stability when riding in forward, aerodynamic racing positions. The evolution of digital 3D printing has allowed Fizik 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. The Short-Distance version of Aeris Adaptive was engineered to provide support and stability for athletes competing in both time trials and short-course, no-draft triathlons. Aeris comes with an optional link to integrate a water-bottle cage onto the rear of the saddle. The link is designed to hold bottles at an angle that is out of the way during the critical mounting and dismounting phases at transition zones.
