Fizik arione/antares

[Edge_Design]

I'm looking at trying one these saddles as my current saddle isn't working for me. Any feedback on them? Looking at rides between 3 and 7 hrs so needs to be comfortable.

I ride a Arione on my road bike and it's very comfy.

 

Have a Antares on my Mtb and it has a little more padding.For longer rides i would go for Antares.

 

I don't often ride longer than 3 hours.

What? Don't you like your saddle? I think its quite lekker...

I see my phone started 2 topics, sorry about that, let's stick with this one!

 

BeOne, you're basically saying they're both good and I should choose one of them right?! Leaning towards the Antares, but for absolutely no specific reason.

 

Feltrider: you and the ginger both seem to like it, but it just seems to catch the back of my legs a bit and really struggle with anything over 100km's (it's awesome until then tho!). Was really sore yesterday so worried about the idea of 200km+!

Jip they both good but for longer rides +4 hours go with the Antares.More padding.

I've been meaning to start a similar topic.

 

I'm struggling with my Arione. I find that, no matter how I change my posture, I still have pressure on my soft tissue. I heard a while back that a lot of people have had this problem with the Arione.

 

So that's my 2cents worth. Apart from the pressure, I love the saddle. I'll be sad if I end up having to change it. But I'd appreciate any feedback anyone else can give on the problem.
