The Fizik Vento Antares R5 Saddle is engineered for cyclists striving for the perfect balance between comfort and high performance. Crafted with a medium profile and an ergonomic cut-out, this saddle effectively reduces pressure and prevents numbness during intense rides. Whether you are pushing hard on a climb or maintaining speed on flat terrain, the Antares R5 supports your every move with precision and comfort.
As part of the new generation of Antares saddles, this model retains the iconic design features that have made it a favorite among professional athletes worldwide. Its low-profile shape facilitates efficient power transfer, with a flatter and slightly wider nose that allows seamless movement and optimal pedaling dynamics. The innovative cut-out, designed with expert medical insights and pressure analysis, ensures enhanced blood flow and pressure relief, making long rides more enjoyable.
Built with double density foam, the saddle offers firmer support where it’s needed most—under the ischial bones—while maintaining softness at the nose to prevent discomfort. Despite its lightweight construction, the Antares R5 remains strong and responsive, perfectly suited for road racing, cyclocross, and cross-country disciplines. Experience race-proven performance combined with exceptional comfort that adapts to your riding style.

The saddle is available in two widths: 140 mm and 150 mm, both with a length of 268 mm to accommodate different rider anatomies and preferences.
Is this saddle suitable for both men and women?
Yes, the Antares R5 is designed as a unisex saddle, offering features and comfort that suit a wide range of riders regardless of gender.
How does the cut-out design improve comfort?
The ergonomic cut-out is developed using detailed pressure mapping and medical expertise to relieve pressure in sensitive areas and improve blood flow, reducing numbness during long rides.
Can this saddle be used for disciplines other than road racing?
While optimized for road racing, the Antares R5 is also well-suited for cyclocross (CX) and cross-country (XC) riding, offering versatile performance across these disciplines.
