Fizik Tempo Argo R1 Saddle

The Fizik Tempo Argo R1 Saddle is built around the idea that a short-nose design doesn't have to compromise performance — it can sharpen it. The truncated nose encourages a more centered, planted position on the bike, which translates directly into better hip mobility and more consistent power through the pedal stroke. Under the cover, a carbon-reinforced nylon shell with carbon rails keeps the structure stiff where stiffness matters, while Type 2 progressive foam adds cushioning that holds up over long hours in the saddle without packing out.

The central cutout addresses pressure on soft tissue during extended efforts — a detail that matters most on rides where fatigue accumulates gradually. Shell edges are designed to flex slightly with inner leg movement, reducing friction and chafe without softening the platform underfoot. Available in 150mm and 160mm widths to match your sit bone measurement, the Argo R1 sits at the top of the Tempo line — a range aimed at endurance road riding where position and sustained comfort carry equal weight.
