Fizik Tundra Saddle
The Tundra is set to be one of the most popular Fizik saddles in their range after being modelled on the hugely successful Arione road saddles. The Tundra saddle features a slightly flatter profile to the Gobi, whilst maintaining the Wing Flex and Tail Flex technology that have made the Gobi saddle so popular. Like a tailor-made suit, every one of the Fizik saddles are all handmade in Italy, or Vicenza to be specific, and represent the very finest quality available - and let's face it, a quality saddle can make the difference between you having a good ride or having the best ride.

With a shorter front section and squared-off rear, the Tundra is like a down sized Arione, with a minimalist approach that suits mountain bikers looking for something that avoids you getting your shorts, (or worse, your bits) caught on the saddle as you move around on and off the saddle. The lightweight k:ium rails keep the overall weight down, and the added cordura material around the edges of the saddle reduce the chance of tearing in the event of a crash, unlike the road models that don't utilise this feature.

From Fizik:

"Since its introduction, fi'zi:k has been committed to providing the ultimate in saddle design - combining comfort and lightweight, technology and innovation. Through physiological research, anatomic studies and advanced technology, fi'zi:k has succeeded in creating that perfect combination. To date, the brand offers twelve distinct model shapes in over twenty variations specifically designed for many riding styles and disciplines.
The unique design of each model (Arione, Gobi, Aliante, Rondine, Tundra, Poggio, Dolomiti, Chrono, Plateau, Nisene, Atlas, and Vitesse) is complemented through innovation. Scientifically developed TechnoGel reduces the risk of soreness and numbness, and provides comfort. The washable microtex cover will not fade; and the often utilized Thigh Glides cover design provides ease of movement along the saddle sides. Innovation translates into benefits for cyclists.
FI'zi:k's saddle designs illustrate the brand's ability to transcend disciplines and cater to the needs of all riders. Their most recent designs underscore fi'zi:k's position as the undisputed leader in innovation and technology in saddle design and manufacturing. Since the brand's 1996 inception, fi'zi:k has been leading the way and consistently differentiating itself from any other saddle brand on the market".

K:IUM Rails
Lighter than Titanium, this Fizik-developed product is a new alloy that allows the engineers to achieve many of the benefits of Ti rails such as its strength and weight properties, at a much lower cost. Whilst dropping weight over the cromoly and steel used on cheaper saddles, the k:ium rails are also corrosion resistant.

Microtex
Another unique material developed by Fizik. A high-tech alternative to leather, Microtex is a breathable, water resistant and washable material that is not only lighter than leather, but also more durable too. And it comes standard with a guilt-free conscience, knowing that no Daisy's were harmed in the making of your new saddle.
