Fi'zi:k Tritone - Braided Rails

The nose-less design is specifically engineered for triathlon geometry, allowing you to rotate your pelvis forward into a more aggressive aero position without soft tissue interference. It encourages you to sit on your sit bones rather than the perineum, which helps maintain comfort during long efforts in the drops or on aero bars.

The braided carbon rails are oval-shaped, measuring 7x9mm. You will need a seatpost clamp that accommodates oval carbon rails, typically found on most modern performance road and triathlon bikes, rather than the standard 7mm round rail clamps.

Yes, the dual water bottle and CO2 mount is modular and can be removed if you prefer a cleaner aesthetic or are racing a shorter distance where you don't need the extra hydration capacity.

The deep channel acts as a relief zone that eliminates pressure on the perineal area, which is a common pain point during the sustained, forward-leaning posture of a triathlon. By removing material in the center, the saddle ensures blood flow and nerve sensitivity are maintained throughout your ride.

While it is optimized for the specific demands of triathlon and time trial bikes, it can be used for road cycling if you prefer a very forward, aggressive position. However, if you spend most of your time riding upright or on the hoods, you may find the lack of a nose makes it difficult to stabilize your position.
