After production is done, your custom saddle will be carefully packaged, shipped, and delivered to your home address. Upon receiving your saddle, you will have the additional opportunity to return to your chosen One-to-One dealer for a follow-up fit session, one that will re-map your personal pressure profile atop your new custom saddle to compare for areas of improvement.

While our standard Adaptive saddles are tuned to meet the riding needs of an average fizik cyclist, based on data gathered from a large sampling of many body types and riding styles, One-to-One saddles are built based on your individual needs, using unique data from your personal pressure-mapping session.

The process is simple and relatively quick. It takes just one saddle fitting session, followed by a four-week lead time for production and delivery. Additionally, after your saddle arrives, you have the option to participate in a follow-up fit session to compare pressure data.

The Terra Argo X3 and X5 share the name and shape with the road Argo saddles, Vento and Tempo, two short-nosed models featuring central cut outs. This short nosed design, arguably pioneered in the ever-popular Specialized Power saddle, is said to encourage stability in the saddle, while relieving pressure from some sensitive areas.

From the first ride, it was obvious that we were a good match, to the point that I forgot it was a test saddle; a good sign! To make sure that the shape and fit remained comfortable over bigger rides, the next step was to build up the ride length.

Suitable for a slightly more upright position than my old fizik Arione Donna, and with a great cut out guard unlike the similar short-nosed Ergon SMC Women, this saddle has quickly made it to the top of the pile.

Hei! How long did you bike on asfalt? I have a gravel bike (very endurance position). I bike mostly 95% of the time on asfalt. Would you still use Fizik Terra Argo? Or it would be better to take Fizik Tempo Argo which is meant for road bikes endurance?

Zachi Fizik specializes in all aspects of plastics engineering with particular expertise in injection molding tooling and supply chain strategy. He has more than three decades of experience supporting both startups and well-known brands in the medical, military, telecom, and consumer industries throughout the entire plastics lifecycle, from the early design phase through the engineering phases and into mass production. He holds a BSc. in mechanical engineering from the Technion Israel Institute of Technology. Recently, he served as consultant to several promising innovative Israeli medical startups whose novel devices reached regulatory approvals. You can reach him at zachi...@zf-consulting.com and connect with him on LinkedIn.

Throughout Zachi Fizik's article series, he has focused on plastic parts used in your medical device and the associated mold production process. In this article, he explains the difference between T0 and T1, which is the first trial. He also discusses sending T1 remarks to the mold maker. With a combination of experience and agility, you'll be able to approve final samples in a timely manner.

Zachi Fizik of ZF Consulting has been involved with injection molds production since the early 1990s. In the first article in this two-part article series, he'll detail the four milestones that are relevant and necessary for all mold production projects, no matter how tight your budget is or how quickly your deadline looms.

Even a great component idea can be undermined by gaps in knowledge surrounding plastic materials, from engineering and design considerations to optimal procedures for turning that idea into a reliable plastic part that can be consistently produced, affordably and with high quality.
