Fizik, Tempo Argo R5 - 160mm

Experience Versatility and Comfort with the TEMPO ARGO R5

The TEMPO ARGO R5 is a versatile endurance road saddle designed with a short-nosed shape and generous ischial support, encouraging stability and comfort for long rides.

Key Features and Benefits

• Enhanced Stability and Weight Distribution: Unlike traditional saddle shapes that require frequent position shifts for leverage, the Argo keeps riders in a planted position, improving stability and distributing weight more effectively.
• Pressure Relief: The short length of the saddle allows riders to sit further forward without placing undue pressure on sensitive tissues, ensuring a more comfortable ride.
• Ergonomic Design: Developed using detailed pressure analysis and insights from medical experts, the saddle includes an ergonomic cutout to enhance comfort and reduce pressure on soft tissue areas.
• Versatile Saddle Shape: As Fizik's most versatile saddle, the Argo adapts to different riding styles. The Tempo Argo is specifically engineered for endurance riding, complementing the balanced geometry of modern all-purpose road bikes.
• Proprietary Type 2 Foam Padding: Designed for long-distance comfort, the Type 2 foam is slightly thicker around the ischial sit bones to support a more upright riding posture. Its softer, progressive cushioning ensures a smoother experience compared to Fizik’s racing saddles.
• Wingflex Technology: The shell's side edges flex and adapt to the rider's inner leg movements, offering enhanced comfort and adaptability during rides.
• Advanced Construction: The R5 model features a carbon-reinforced nylon shell combined with an S-Alloy rail, ensuring a compliant yet durable ride.
