Fizik Vitesse Tri Ladies’ Carbon
The Vitesse is Fizik’s female-specific tri saddle, coming with a more padded, wider-than-average nose for tri-bar time, and pink detailing. Making anything lady-specific in either powder blue or pink is a real trend in the bike industry of late, yet seems to wind lots of women up. Thankfully, on the mostly black Vitesse, the pink touches are quite subtle.
The rails and base are carbon, so the saddle is quite light at 195g, while the Integrated Clip System (ICS) is a neat touch, allowing you to buy lights and bags that slot directly into a clip between the rear of the rails. Comfort is excellent but the only question mark hovers over the price: £180 seems a lot, even for a saddle this good.
