A versatile shortnose gravelspecific saddle with a combination of a ridecompliant, carbonreinforced nylon shell and Kium hollow rails.
A ridecompliant, gravelspecific saddle with a shortnose design and generous ischial support for improved stability.
GREATER STABILITY
Where a traditional saddle shape encourages riders to shift their position frequently for better leverage, the Argo puts riders in a more planted position, making for greater stability and better weight distribution. The Terra Argo’s short length allows riders to sit further forward without placing undue pressure on sensitive areas. It also features an ergonomic cutout that was developed using detailed pressure analysis and input from medical experts.
GRAVEL SPECIFIC SADDLE
The Argo is our most versatile saddle shape, with each version suited to different riding styles. As the gravelspecific option, the Terra Argo has been engineered with a compliant shell to offer a certain degree of flexibility. This controlled elasticity absorbs road chatter and vibrations, delivering the comfort needed for long distance riding over unpaved roads.
STABILITY AND RESPONSIVENESS
To better support the Terra Argo’s flexible shell, we used our closedloop Mobius rail system for increased structural stability and responsiveness. The Terra Argo features a waved profile to provide the lowerback support necessary for long rides and to help riders hold their position while climbing on loose terrain. The same goes for the droppednose design which allows riders to rotate their pelvis while pushing forward on the nose for better traction and power transfer.
LONG DISTANCE COMFORT
The padding is made from fizik’s proprietary Type foam formulation, slightly thicker around the ischial sit bones area to support a more upright riding posture. The cushioning is slightly softer and more progressive than the type we use on our racing saddles, providing more longdistance comfort.
