Review on 🚴 Fizik Aliante R3 with K:Ium Rails by Romas Pennington

First off, it's not black, it's charcoal. No deal breaker. Also, the strip of material they add at the back makes the saddle very grippy, but it also eats into the transitional hem into shorts. Seated climbing or any kind of torque riding has put holes in all of my $300 Assos shorts at every point of contact. Never had a problem with Aliante's old smooth top design. I'm angry but now I'm sticking with it until the chamois are uncovered. Ridiculous design. The Assos shorts cost me $1200.
