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 program, 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.

This is replacing a Selle Italia Novus Endurance TM.I am 6′-3″ 230 lbs. My Selle saddle is very nice, has more cusion than the Fizik. But at large size 148 wide, the Fizik large at 160 mm wide is a better platform. The Fizik is 250 grams, 50 grams lighter than mt Sella.I have an endurance bike, with the frame a bit too large, so I need to put the seat as far forward as possible. The Fizik Argo, the rails are slightly more forward than some saddles. Which puts you a little further from your head tube. So if your frame is on the large size, this sadle may not work well. Actually I put my Selle back on, because with the Fizik Argo, I feel Im too far back from the handle bars.I am planning on getting a Bianchi Infinito at 59 cm frame, I think this may work well on that.Fizik has a workd class racing heritage. So with this being their most cusion saddle, its still not at all excessive.The rear of the saddle is high, then it doesn’t go level, but slightly up, so it really has you planted, like a hoarse saddle in a way. But you can still move to the tip of the saddle, when you want to be over the cranks more, for power going up hills.It has a nice leather or synthetic leather cover, with some decent cussion underneath.The sides flex, its just seems very well made and designed.Its not for an upright bike for grandpas to go for a little ride.Its a seriius endurance saddle, for bikes like a Synapse, Roubaix, or Domane.

Beautiful saddle, super lite, great support Just too hard for me. I went with the fizik R5, so comfortable, only a little more weight.

It has changed my feel about riding now. Wide and less pressure and able to ride longer and faster too..glad I bought it. If only it was made in brown…

Replaced the Bontrager saddle that came with my Trek Domane. Bought this saddle based on recommendations from other riders in my cycling group and can say that I’m fully satisfied. I can sit on this all day with practically no saddle soreness.

I have bought multiple saddles to fit multiple bikes (road and gravel). I finally got a professional fitting and they recommended a wider saddle. I bought one from another company and it didn’t last long before one of the rail supports began to fail. I looked at these fizik saddles with good reviews, good price point and the right size. Turns out this is where I should have started. I have no issues with 50 to 100 mile rides. Saddles are a very personal choice, but I like these well enough to have bought a few and ride across multiple bikes/terrain. The one bike I don’t run this saddle on is my MTB where I run a MTB specific saddle.

I wish I liked this saddle. It looks great, the padding is just right, the cutout is huge, it has a line/mark at 75 mm from its widest point so setting it at an exact distance from the bars is easy, and it’s relatively flat front to back, so you can tip the nose down without feeling like your sliding forward like saddles with the back swooped up. The only problem for me, with my narrow 110 mm sit bone width and my bike set up with a few inches of saddle to handlebar drop, is that due to its more triangle shape when viewed from the top it impedes on movement of the back of legs (right under my butt). Every pedal stroke at full leg expension I could feel the edges somewhat digging into the inner/back my thighs. It was very noticeable and annoying compared to my typical saddles were the wide part of saddle quickly narrows towards the thin section. It’s a shame, cause otherwise I love the saddle. I think I’ll give the narrower and more race oriented 140 mm Vento version a try… If you are okay with a little wider saddle and/or you don’t have as much saddle to handlebar drop, I think this saddle would work well for you. For now, I’m sticking to the unfortunately discontinued Specialized Toupe saddles in 143 mm wide. For reference, I’m 5’10”, 150 pounds.

Fits me well, still have flexibility with riding positions without pinching near the front. Significantly reduced numbness and saddle sores for me, highly recommend short saddle
