Fizik Antares Versus Evo 00 Adaptive

Has anyone seen or purchased this new 3D printed saddle? There seem to be few independent reviews (https://www.velonews.com/gear/fizik-...le-first-look/ and [URL="https://granfondo-cycling.com/fizik-antares-versus-evo-00-adaptive-2020-review/")

I have 5/6 rides with mine... love it.

Use a S-Works Power and Berk Lupina on other bikes.. Adaptive is my favorite and will eventually replace the others if I can find good deals.

There's a thread on weightweenies on this saddle. Seems really universally loved, almost enough that folks are suspicious. If any of them were in stock, I'd have one.

I just ordered the full carbon one. Maybe I should of got the cheaper one. It is backordered, gonna take a while to come in.

Will I have any issues with the carbon rails on a deda 100 aluminum seatpost? It should be compatible right? This will be my first carbon saddle and just want to make sure I don't do anything wrong.

I wanted to try it as the best saddle for me right now is the regular fizik antares so I figured this can only be an upgrade, hopefully

Just make sure you do not exceed the recommended torque settings and use a quality wrench. A lil paste never hurts either


Where did you find the carbon , in black or dayglo ?

The black one. I'm in Canada but had to order from Italy. Can't find it here

ciclicorsa.com

Says 15 day wait. They did send an email saying it's been ordered and may take a little longer due to covid
