Fizik Vento Arione R1 Light Saddle - 145 mm

The Arione R1 Light is a high-performance road bike saddle with a flat profile and streamlined shape.

As the longest saddle in Fizik’s lineup, the Arione allows for significant fore-to-aft movement, enabling riders to find their ideal zones for power and comfort while reducing pressure in the most aerodynamic riding positions.

In this configuration, the Arione R1 Light combines low-profile, injected EVA padding with a flexible saddle shell and exceptionally stiff carbon saddle rails.

Key Features

THE RETURN OF AN ICON
Known for its sleek silhouette and low profile, the Arione has long been the choice of pros and ambitious riders seeking speed—now reimagined with modern materials and advanced manufacturing methods. It’s the comeback of a classic, made for the modern road bike.

R1 LIGHT CONSTRUCTION
Engineered for low weight and high-performance riding, the R1 Light construction combines a carbon-reinforced nylon saddle shell with ultra-stiff carbon saddle rails for a responsive, lightweight platform. Injected EVA padding provides low-profile, responsive damping that offers comfort and support without compromising the ergonomic shape or adding bulk. The result: a saddle that reduces weight without compromise—ideal for long, fast days in the saddle.

FAST LINES, FASTER RIDES
The Arione is a high-performance racing saddle designed for speed. With a flat profile and an elongated, streamlined shape, it has the longest length of any Fizik saddle—offering ample freedom of movement from front to back to support powerful pedaling and position changes during intense road races and time trials. Ideal for aggressive, aerodynamic riding, the Arione helps riders maintain optimal posture while minimizing pressure and maximizing performance—whether you’re sprinting to the finish line or riding in an aero position in a solo breakaway group.

TARGETED RELIEF, STABLE RIDE
The Arione features an ergonomic cutout developed using detailed pressure analyses and input from medical experts, which helps reduce pressure and promote blood circulation. The saddle surface has a textured grip that ensures a non-slip hold and minimizes unwanted movements that could compromise performance.

AERODYNAMIC BOTTLE POSITIONING
The Arione comes with an optional mount to integrate a bottle cage behind the saddle. The mount is designed to hold bottles at an angle that does not get in the way during the critical mounting and dismounting phases in transition zones. In accordance with UCI rules, the Arione is equipped with a revolutionary rail mount that delivers a more aerodynamic riding experience by allowing for a wide range of adjustment necessary to achieve the ideal forward position for cutting through the wind.
