A lightweight, versatile road bike saddle with a low profile, carbon reinforced nylon shell and carbon braces for balanced performance in a variety of riding situations.
A name that has featured in almost every Grand Tour over the past two decades, consistently finishing at the top of the podium in the Tour de France, the Giro and the Vuelta - and despite increasing age, it just keeps getting better. We're talking about the Antares. Since its launch in the early 2000s, our Antares race saddle has been an essential companion for cycling's best athletes: riders like Chris Froome, Vincenzo Nibali, Alejandro Valverde, Greg Van Avermaet, Wout van Aert and even last year's TDF winner, Jonas Vingegaard. Now the Antares is back and better than ever. Take a seat in the winner's circle with the brand new Antares.
PERFORMANCE CHOSEN BY PROFESSIONALS
Part of the new generation of Antares saddles, the Antares R1 retains many iconic design features that have made the original one of the most popular saddles among top athletes.
POWER TRANSMISSION
The Antares is a low-profile saddle with a nose-to-wing transition that provides efficient power transfer in any riding position. Whether you're tackling a climb or keeping the pace high on flat terrain, this saddle is designed to support you every time. A flatter, slightly wider nose makes it easier to slide forward and backward, providing an optimal base for power transfer.
PRESSURE RELIEF
The Antares features an ergonomic cutout, designed based on detailed pressure analysis and with input from medical experts, that promotes pressure relief and blood flow. In addition, the low-profile padding is designed with dual-density foam that is firmer at the ischial tuberosities and softer at the nose to provide the proper support for each rider, regardless of riding position, without creating excessive pressure.
LIGHT, STRONG, RESPONSIVE
The Antares is designed for cyclists looking for a performance saddle without sacrificing comfort. As our performance option, the Antares has proven itself with athletes around the world - from road riders to cyclocross and cross-country athletes.
TECHNOLOGIES / SPECIFICATIONS
ANTARES: Low-profile performance saddle that makes you feel like you're one with the saddle. For optimal pedaling efficiency and power transfer
R1: Combination of a compliant, carbon reinforced nylon shell and a very stiff carbon rail
WINGFLEX: The side edges of the shell flex and adapt to the rider's internal leg movement
