2026 Fizik Aeris Short Distance R1 Light
Aeris Short Distance combines our lightweight EVA padding and carbon rails with a pressure-relieving shape that offers maximum stability and support for time trialists and triathletes in the forwardmost aerodynamic riding positions.
Aeris Short-Distance R1 Light is an innovative sprint-distance time-trial and triathlon saddle built to prioritize pressure relief in the forwardmost riding position. Combining weight-saving EVA foam padding with a highly stiff carbon rail and carbon-reinforced nylon shell, Aeris SD R1 Light delivers a balanced approach to performance and support.

R1 LIGHT CONSTRUCTION
Engineered for low weight and high-performance riding, R1 Light construction combines a carbon-reinforced nylon shell with ultra-stiff carbon rails for a responsive, lightweight platform. Injected EVA padding delivers low-profile, reactive cushioning that maintains comfort and support without sacrificing the ergonomic shape or increasing thickness. The result: a saddle that reduces weight without compromise—ideal for long, fast days on the saddle.
THE SCIENCE OF COMFORT & SPEED
Innovation in bike-fitting analysis alongside research on cycling aerodynamics led us to rethink our triathlon and time-trial saddles. In a field where marginal gains are fundamental, being able to provide a saddle that allows comfort in the most extreme aerodynamic positions represents a leap forward in performance achievement.
SPRINT TO VICTORY
The Short-Distance version of Aeris has been engineered to provide support and stability for athletes competing in both time trials and short-course, no-draft triathlons. A pressure-relief cutout, which progressively transitions into a channeled nose, increases comfort. At the same time, the properly dimensioned nose provides the right level of support and stability to allow riders to produce maximum power while in forward, aerodynamic positions.The saddle padding consists of our injected EVA foam: thicker on the nose, where triathletes and time-trialists spend most of their time, and slimmer on the ischial bones to provide a firmer feeling for when riders need to rise from the aero position. The saddle’s surface features a grippy texture that ensures a no-slip hold, minimizing unwanted movement that could compromise performance.
MULTIPLE FEATURES FOR MIXED DISCIPLINES
