TEMPO ARGO R3 is a versatile endurance road saddle with a short-nose design and generous ischial support that encourages stability.
Where a traditional saddle shape encourages riders to shift their position frequently for better leverage, Argo puts the rider in a more planted position, making for greater stability and better weight distribution.
Tempo Argo’s short length allows the rider to sit further forward without placing undue pressure on sensitive tissues. It also features an ergonomic cutout that was developed using detailed pressure analysis and input from medical experts.
Argo is our most versatile saddle shape and each version suits different riding styles. As the endurance riding option, Tempo Argo has been engineered to deliver a riding feel that suits the balanced geometry of today’s all-purpose road machines.
The padding is made from fizik’s proprietary Type 2 foam formulation, slightly thicker around the ischial sit bones area to support a more upright riding posture. The cushioning is slightly softer and more progressive than the type we use on our racing saddles, providing more long-distance comfort.
Argo is a product of the fizik Concepts programme, a cross-disciplinary collaboration of leading industry experts and academics carrying out research and analysis on technology, design, physiology and bike-fitting in search of ways to improve cycling performance.

Storia del marchio Fizik
Fizik è la collezione premium del marchio Selle Royal S.p.a.
Il nome è sinonimo di forma e dinamica del corpo umano, la casa produttrice è associata a tutti i prodotti che sono forma di contatto tra il ciclista e la bici.
Inoltre Fizik rappresenta bellezza, velocità, passione, libertà per tutti quelli che vanno in sella per agonismo in squadra, per gare a cronometro e per qualsiasi ciclista che cerca il meglio. L'origine del marchio risale al 1998 e nasce dalla visione secondo la quale creare una sella confortevole significa migliorare la prestazione in bici.
Oggi, lo Spine Concept™ fornisce le linee guida per aiutare i ciclisti a trovare la sella più adatta al proprio corpo.
Indispensabile per questo progetto è la collaborazione con atleti professionisti e il fatto che il 100% delle selle sono fatte a mano in Italia. Fizik ha il merito di aver reinventato le selle da competizione, grazie al design incredibilmente innovativo, elegante e comodo, oltre ad essere un prodotto bellissimo.
La serie Arione del 2003 è solo un esempio. Nel 2006, Fizik lancia un prodotto per il punto di contatto col manubrio: un nastro manubrio in Microtex resistente e lavabile.
La collezione di scarpe viene lanciata nel 2010, e offre una miscela di materiali innovativi e stile inimitabile.
Nel 2014 Fizik inaugura lo Spine Concept con una serie di prodotti che aiuta il ciclista a scegliere la migliore postura.
Nel 2013, le selle Fizik vengono usate dal 8 dei 19 Team UCI nei campionati mondiali. Fizik punta inesorabilmente al progresso, che è facilitato dalla collaborazione con atleti di tutte le discipline ciclistiche.
La casa produttrice supera ogni limite grazie ad innumerevoli test e continui perfezionamenti. Non è una sorpresa che i prodotti Fizik sono usati da tantissimi campioni mondiali di ciclismo e Ironman.
