3D-Printed Padding Fizik Adaptive 3D-printed padding has been integrated into the Aliante family, offering exceptional, long-lasting comfort on a waved-profile saddle with a slightly wider platform, specifically designed to enhance support and pressure relief.
Tailored Zonal Cushioning The evolution of digital 3D printing has enabled the development of a saddle free from the constraints of traditional production methods and materials. The Adaptive saddle padding is crafted by Carbon using their revolutionary Digital Light Synthesis technology. This additive manufacturing process employs digital ultraviolet light projection, oxygen-permeable optics, and programmable liquid resins to produce parts with excellent mechanical properties, resolution, and surface finish.

Lab Tested, Road Proven Carbon technology allows biomechanics and engineers to design and manufacture multiple functional zones within the saddle, each fine-tuned for specific mechanical properties. These key functional zones are seamlessly integrated, resulting in a 60% reduction in peak pressure through improved weight distribution, enhancing comfort across the entire saddle surface.
All-Day Comfort Aliante features a waved saddle design with a gradual, tapered transition from wing to nose. The slightly wider platform supports the ischial bones, improving stability and weight distribution for all-day rides. The newly redesigned Aliante has a flatter surface to allow for more evenly distributed pressure and a balanced feel, particularly beneficial for extended endurance rides.
Less Pressure = Longer Rides Aliante Adaptive 3D-printed padding is engineered to provide every rider with optimal support, regardless of riding position, for long days on the bike. The unique properties of Adaptive technology allow for the design of thicker padding with a softer central functional zone, rather than a cut-out, increasing the saddle’s surface area to better distribute pressure and improve comfort on longer rides. Aliante R3 Adaptive offers a balanced combination of strength and weight with its carbon-reinforced nylon shell and hollow Kium rail.
