Fizik Transiro Aeris R1 long Distance Triathlon saddleAeris Long Distance is a split-nose triathlon bike saddle designed to provide greater support and stability when riding in forward, aerodynamic racing positions.THE SCIENCE OF COMFORT & SPEEDInnovation in bike-fitting analysis alongside research on cycling aerodynamics led us to rethink our triathlon and time-trial saddles. In a field where marginal gains are fundamental, being able to provide a saddle that allows comfort in the most extreme aerodynamic positions represents a leap forward in performance achievement.DESIGNED TO GO THE DISTANCEThe Long-Distance version of Aeris is engineered with a split-nose construction. The independent halves of the nose allow for an unprecedented pressure-relief system while continuing to maintain the firm support and balance needed for long hours spent pushing in aero positions. At the nose, the rail loop provides strength to avoid asymmetrical fatigue while also acting as a hook to hold the bike in place in race transition zones.MULTIPLE FEATURES FOR MIXED DISCIPLINESAeris comes with an optional Link to integrate a water-bottle cage to the rear of the saddle. The link is designed to hold bottles at an angle that is out of the way during the critical mounting and dismounting phases at transition zones. Complying with UCI rules, Aeris is equipped with a revolutionary rail insertion that not only provides a more aero feeling allowing for a broad range of adjustability, necessary to achieve the ideal forward position to beat the wind.The Aeris R1 saves weight thanks to a newly designed 7x9 mm carbon rail.TECHNOLOGIES / SPECIFICATIONSAeris: Triathlon saddle designed to provide support and stability while in the aerodynamic time-trial positionR1: Combination of a ride-compliant, carbon-reinforced nylon shell and a highly stiff carbon railSplit nose: The nose is split into two halves for an unprecedented pressure-relief system that maintains the firm support and balance needed for long hours spent pedaling in the aero, time-trial positionIntegrated hydration mount: An optional link serves to integrate a water-bottle cage onto the back of the saddleSPECIFICATIONSTRANSIRO AERIS LONG DISTANCE R1 135 mmLength: 242 mmWidth: 135 mmHeight at 75 mm width: 51 mmLength from nose to 75mm width: 99 mmNose Width: 55 mmWeight: 181 gRail: 7x9 mmAeris Link weight: 14 g
