Vento Argo is a performance racing saddle with a short-nose design that improves stability and allows for a more aggressive, aero riding position. The Argo puts the rider in a more planted position, making for greater stability and better weight distribution. Vento Argo's short length allows the rider to sit further forward without placing undue pressure on sensitive tissues. As the racing option, Vento Argo has been engineered to deliver a riding feel that suits race bikes with aggressive geometry. The padding is made from Fizik's proprietary Type 1 foam formulation, which has a lower profile and is reactive and springy for instantaneous response and optimal power transfer.

  • R5: a combination of a ride-compliant carbon reinforced nylon shell and an S-Alloy hollow steel rail

Very comfortable design easy to find the sweet spot for long rides. My one issue is the rough edges around the cutout. A slightly more rounded lip would get the 5th star from me. I am an avid 70+mile a week rider and this is one of my favorite saddles.;

Build price weight and look is A+. But for my wider sit bones this saddle was just a bum killer.;

Muy comodo;

It's an improvement over the seat that came with my bike (stiff road bike) that had no cutout. It's a little more comfortable but I'll still get some genital numbness or tingling after about an hour of riding - which I was hoping the cutout would eliminate. I'm making fine adjustments to the seat before and during each ride trying to find the sweet spot but haven't found it yet. I also have a brooks B17 on a city cruiser bike that was comfortable with minimal adjustment. If I can't get this argo saddle to fit me well I'm looking at maybe the brooks cambium c15
