What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I put the Vento Argo X5 on my gravel setup and immediately noticed the added support during long efforts. The short nose helps keep me stable on steep climbs, and the pressure relief cut-out makes long miles much more comfortable. It’s low-profile, sleek, and totally dialed for XC and gravel."We count on the Vento Argo X5 Saddle to deliver the support and precision we need for off-road racing, whether we’re grinding through gravel centuries or threading tight XC singletrack. Fizik built this saddle with a short-nose profile and rounded contours, giving us the freedom to shift forward during steep climbs or adapt quickly to aggressive positions without losing stability. The fiber-reinforced nylon shell and ergonomic cut-out reduce pressure without compromising power transfer. Designed with a rubber mudguard built into the relief channel, it also keeps dirt and trail spray in check. From punchy climbs to bumpy descents, the Argo X5 gives us confidence and comfort on long, demanding rides.
