Vital question

[RushingD3ad]

Will their red bar tape match the red saddle or are those two different kinds of red ? Thanks

Buy the saddle, then go to a shop and check against the bar tape, then buy the bar tape? Or order both from wiggle, return if no good

The glossy Fizik tape would be darker than that saddle as it looks pretty bright. I think indeed their red tape would not match if the saddle is that red

The bar tape will get a bit grubby sooner or later too...the saddle less so...I would hope

If you don't obey the cardinal rule you could end up crimson.

The press shots are rarely representative of the actual colour. In any event I advise from experience not to veer from black bar tape!

As for the saddle, lot of money wasted if it doesn't suit your fleshy bits.

I'm a rather skinny guy so I figured I'd do best by buying this one. Besides the saddle I currently have, has +- the same shape as the arione. I don't have any fizzik dealers in my vicinity so I had to take the risk by buying online. Pretty sure it will fit me though...

Thanks for your input btw

Lack of fat/muscle does not necessarily correspond to sit bone width. You may have wider bones but minimal padding. You'll know whether it's the right saddle soon enough

Or whos going to notice when your sitting on the saddle ?
