Transiro Aeris LD R5 Saddle

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I recommend this saddle for any athlete spending serious time in the aero bars. The independent nose design helps eliminate numbness and pressure, and it really shines on full-distance triathlons or longer TTs. It’s one of the most race-specific saddles out there—and it works."

Fizik’s Transiro Aeris Long Distance R5 sets a new benchmark in long-course triathlon and time-trial comfort. Developed through aerodynamic and biomechanical research, this saddle supports riders who remain locked in an aero position for extended durations—and need their gear to go the distance without compromise.

The signature split-nose design provides independent movement between the two halves, relieving pressure on soft tissues while still offering a wide, stable surface for powerful pedaling. The type-1 foam blend used in the padding is strategically firmer at the ischial support zones and thicker at the nose, where most pressure resides during aero efforts. A structural rail loop reinforces the nose while serving as a practical hook for racking during transitions.

For hydration, the integrated rear-mount link accepts a bottle cage angled for quick access and out-of-the-way convenience. Built to meet UCI standards and deliver aerodynamic adjustability, the Aeris Long Distance R5 is the saddle that turns discomfort into sustained power—and transitions into time saved.
