Review on 🚴 Enhanced Performance Bike Saddle by Fizik Open by Omar Alradwan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great saddle on saddle

I would highly recommend this saddle if you are definitely a chameleon by Fizik's flex standards. I'm definitely a physics snake, but I weigh 150 pounds and drive 15-20+ mph. Judging by the speed and weight chart, the wider Antares platform with 142 seats suited me better. However, my considerable flexibility hindered my performance when using this particular saddle. I sent it back and opted for the Arione Open Large which better suits my flexibility and level of performance. Remember that the Antares' design is impeccable and the meticulous attention to detail makes it the perfect pro saddle. If you really are a chameleon I would highly recommend this saddle. Be sure to check Fizik's recommendations before choosing any of their recommended saddles based on your body's needs. My Arione Open Large saddle fits like a glove and I take proper care of it throughout the riding process. Once your saddle is positioned correctly, the pressure on your arms eases, the numbness in your foot goes away, the constant aches and pains subside, and the pain in your knee just seems to go away. I am sure that all cyclists or people who practice cycling are familiar with these errors. I have tried so many saddles from different manufacturers but Fizik is the only one in my opinion that has designed a saddle based on what your body is doing. Body Geometry saddles are amazing, but they don't focus on speed, weight, or flex. The initial geometry of the body provides excellent relief, but after a few hours in the saddle, other areas of the body tire because neither body weight nor flexibility are the focus. I could go on forever but just wanted to share my opinion on the Fizik Flex-Fit system and Fizik saddles.

Pros
  • Easy to use
