Fizik Antares R3 Colour Edition SaddleThis limited edition road bike saddle features a hard-wearing microtex cover that's ready for wherever your road journey takes you. Fizik has also kitted it out with a carbon thermoplastic composite shell, which delivers an excellent balance of comfort, low weight and flexibility, making it ideal for transferring all of your leg power to your pedals. Thanks to its shell's Wing Flex technology, this model benefits from additional flexibility along its edges where your inner thighs make contact with the saddle. This extra flexibility means you can achieve a full range of leg movement in a wider range of positions. Another highlight is its K:ium alloy rails, which provide a strong and secure hold to your seatpost so you can stay in full control as you clock up the miles. Drawing inspiration from the aesthetics of the Arione saddle, this limited colour version adds some extra style to your ride with its eye-catching design.Antares R1 is for The Chameleon: Medium SpineIf you have an intermediate degree of spinal flexibility (approximately 90 degrees between your straight legs and your back when bending over as far as you can, keeping your legs straight a shoulders' width apart), you are a chameleon. Your degree of spinal flexibility helps you so far, before you need to rotate your pelvis slightly to achieve fully the performance position.You will benefit from the increased width and slight curvature of the Antares shape.Features: Cover Material: Microtex Shell Material: Carbon Thermoplastic Composite with Wing Flex Rails Material: K:ium Alloy Thigh Glides: Microtex Use: Road Size: Large: 275x152mm Integrated Clip System: Yes Weight: 205gTechnologies: Integrated Clip System: The Integrated Clip System (ICS) is an integrated interface in the saddle's base to allow quick attachment and removal of ICS accessories such as the Fi'zi:k saddle Pa:k and Blin:k light. It is a clean, easy, fast and secure attachment that does not require any tools. K:ium Rails: K:ium is a Fizik proprietary rail formulation. It's the combination of a particular metal alloy, a specific tubular design and a special finishing process that increases fatigue performance on the rail surface. Fact: 8% weight reduction compared to solid titanium. K:ium features a high strength-to-weight ratio grade and high corrosion resistance. Wing Flex Technology: Wing Flex shell has engineered flexibility along the edges where the inner thighs contact the saddle. By allowing this area to flex, the rider can achieve a full range of leg movement in a wide range of riding positions. Wing Flex allows the saddle to adapt to the rider rather than the rider having to get used to the saddle.Manufacturer's Part Number: 74B1SWSA69653 Black/Green L Large 152mmBuy Fizik Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

This fit suggestion system is the next step from the original spine concept you may have previously been familiar with. You can download the app for android and IOS systems which will guide you through the process of finding the right saddle for you.Comfort from your saddle comes from having the right fit by looking at the overall shape of the saddle. The spine concept evo is a 2 stage process focussed around your spinal flexibility, body weight on the saddle and power output.1. Spine flexibility and pelvic rotation are inextricably linked to saddle comfort - how flexible your spine is determines which saddle shape fits you.Arione / Snake - a flat saddle, suits flexible riders whom tend to ride with their pelvis in a neutral position and be very active along the length of the saddle. If on other saddles you have been finding yourself feeling restricted and trying to constantly adjust back along the saddle length maybe you should try Arione.Antares / Chameleon - a slight curve towards the rear of the saddle, slightly wider than the arione. Provides some pelvic rotation support whilst still allowing some movement of the rider on the saddle.Aliante / Bull - a more signicant waved shape in this saddle provides support for the pelvis whilst in a rotated position. This can happen as a result of reduced spinal flexibility meaning the rider's pelvis must rotate on the saddle in order to reach forward into the riding position. If on other saddles you have felt pressure points on your sit bones, perhaps you have not had enough support at the rear of the saddle.2. Power and weight through the saddleOnce you have found your shape then the app can help you select the right width for you. It looks at your power output and weight to determine how much weight is being applied to the saddle vs the pedals and will then recommend the correct width for you.
With the Antares you can now focus even more on your goals in training: improve your fitness and pedal stroke and reinforce your sense of equilibrium at the same time. Tacx Antares rollers distinguish themselves through the heavy conical rollers that create the momentum of mass inertia. When collapsed the rollers measure only 80 cm and are therefore easily transportable. The Antares rollers are Tacx's revolutionary contribution to the new found popularity of track racing. The concept of rollers is quite old. It is how indoor training for cyclists started out. In 1972 Tacx BV launched the manufacturing process of its first rollers. This later turned out to be a stroke of genius. Many people who own a sports or racing bicycle want to stay fit, even in winter. Over time three models were developed. But then there also were the rear wheel trainers, pushing the original rollers into the background. These rear wheel trainers are collapsible and allow you to train at high resistances. But the rollers offer advantages for training that no other trainer is capable of offering. Just think of improving your pedal stroke, your equilibrium, suppleness and concentration on your steering. To put it in a nutshell, the rollers are the perfect tool for cyclists to have next to their cycle- ergo- or VR trainer.
