The Arione saddle is tailor - made for snake - style riders with flexible spines. These riders feel at ease whether standing, sitting, or shifting positions on the bike. The R1 model features a carbon - injected nylon twin flex body, significantly reducing its weight. Key features include: 1. Wing Flex shell: It bends down where your inner thigh meets the saddle, enabling more efficient pedaling and a full range of motion. 2. Carbon Thermoplastic Composite shell with Wing Flex: This provides both flexibility and durability. 3. Carbon Braided Rail: A unique design with a sleeve of braided carbon fibers filled with unidirectional carbon fibers that can expand and contract. 4. Integrated Clip System: A tool - free interface at the saddle base for quick attachment and removal of fizik packs and blink lights (available on all saddles unless otherwise noted). 5. Composite Carbon - reinforced nylon shell with Wing Flex technology: Allows flexibility precisely where your thighs touch the saddle. 6. Light and strong Braided Carbon rail: Ensures a perfect balance of weight and strength.

Using the Fizik Arione R1 Open Cycling Saddle is straightforward. Just make sure to install it on your bike according to the clamp style of 7x9 Carbon Rails. Once installed, you're ready to enjoy a comfortable ride, especially if you're a snake - style rider. When using, feel free to change your position between sitting and standing as the saddle is designed to support these movements. As for maintenance, clean the synthetic material with a mild soap and water solution regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the carbon components. Check the Carbon Braided Rail and the Integrated Clip System periodically for any signs of wear and tear. If you notice any issues, it's best to have it inspected by a professional. Also, store the saddle in a dry place when not in use to prevent any moisture - related damage.
