Key Features
Performance racing design Ergonomic pressure?relief cut?out Double?density foam padding Carbon?reinforced nylon shell Kium hollow rails Widths: 140 mm and 150 mm
Power Transfer and Support
Antares is a low?profile saddle with a smooth transition from nose to wing, helping riders maintain efficient pedalling whether climbing, sprinting or holding tempo on flat terrain. The flatter, slightly wider nose makes it easier to move fore and aft, giving a stable base for producing power.
Pressure Relief
The ergonomic cut?out is shaped using detailed pressure mapping and medical input. It helps relieve pressure and improve blood flow, especially during long efforts. The double?density foam padding is firmer under the sit bones and softer at the nose, giving balanced support without creating unwanted pressure.
Lightweight, Strong, Responsive
The carbon?reinforced nylon shell keeps weight low while maintaining strength and ride compliance. Kium hollow rails add durability and vibration damping. The R5 is built for riders who want a performance saddle that supports hard efforts without sacrificing comfort.
Designed With Pros
Part of the Vento performance series, the Antares R5 is shaped and tuned with feedback from professional cyclists. It is built for fast riding across road racing, XC and CX, offering a confident, efficient platform for demanding training and racing.
