Fizik Vitesse Twin Tech

Saddle Survey Response posted to forums by Administrator:


My saddle is: FI'ZI:K Vitesse Twin Tech w/ titanium rails. From my first 30 mile test ride and now 4 years later, it hasn't given me one saddle sore. I've been very pleased with it. It does a great job of absorbing road shock. The price scared me away at first, but then I realized cheaper isn't always better.

Before I tried the Vitesse I must have tried 5 or 6 other saddles - after about 15 - 20 miles (on each) I was getting a saddle sore...ouch!

I recently switched from a Selle Italia Max Flite Lady Trans Am to the Fizik Vitesse women's saddle. I had put about 2500 miles on the Trans Am and have put about 500 on the Vitesse. So far so good. I wasn't uncomfortable on the Trans Am but I was getting a lot of saddle sores from the edges. There is a pretty sharp, almost right angle, drop off from the top to the sides. The Vitesse is gradual. I did like the cut out with the Trans Am so that is taking some adjustment, but I think it will work in the long run.

I discovered the Fizik Vitesse Twin Tech saddle a couple of years ago, and I'm using it on two of my bikes. This saddle rocks! Its relatively narrow and has just the right amount of padding (not too much!). It's comfortable for both day trips and long tours - I used one on my cross-country trip last summer, and I was still happy after sitting on the saddle all day every day for 2 1/2 months!
