I had no idea just how important finding the right saddle is. I have had numerous saddles and, by far, the Fizik Aliante Gamma Saddle is the best. It's comfortable. I am not sore or stiff after long rides. My first use of the saddle was in the NYC five-boro tour and I was amazed at how comfortable the seat was even 30 miles in. I was not cramping. I was not sore or stiff after the ride. Even with multiple stops I experienced very little if any fatigue. I have now had the saddle for 3 months and I am still amazed at home comfortable the saddle is because I was very skeptical. I previously was riding on a Giant Saddle and visually the seats looked similar which made me skeptical but that is where the similarities end. The price, in hindsight, is worth it. Actually, it was probably a steal. I highly Recommend Fizik saddles. They're Amazin!
Have this on my gravel bike. A great saddle is one you don't notice, and I don't notice this one on 20 to 50 mile rides on gravel, dirt, and single track, with total elevations of 4000 ft. on a ride. Should have gotten this for my road bike, too.
I bought this because I've ridden these for years and find them to be the best. My current (identical) saddle is still in great shape, but I bought this on sale for use on my next bike or as a spare for my existing road or 'cross bike.
this is on of 4 fizik saddles i own (2 each of alliate and arione).
i bought this for the bike i have relegated to trainer use because it's the only one that can keep me comfy for > an hour without shifting or standing like i do on the road.
Excellent saddle. Sure, saddles are sometimes a riders personal choice but this one ticks all the right boxes. No annoying seams, or cutouts, just a nice smooth surface and rounded fit. Also pretty low in weight, so you won't be giving up anything for a really good fit. My advice, try this Fizik and once you do buy several more. Then you will have a spare or extras for other bikes in your quiver

Good looking saddle with bump absorbing wing flex design and very comfy on century rides.
I really like this saddle. I took advantage of the opportunity to test the saddle with a $10 rental and was very happy with how comfortable and natural the saddle felt on the road. I have used it for around a month, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a saddle that allows you to feel connected to the bike.
I have used different Fizik saddle's over the years and have always had good luck with them. I recently had a fellow rider suggest this saddle. Wow!!! I wish I would known about this model earlier, I just ordered my second one for another bike. It is not the lightest saddle Fizik makes but the comfort level is the best.
Riding 120 mi. a week and close to 2,000 ridden on this saddle. I find it very comfortable and looks killer on my bike. Wouldn't hesitate for a second to buy another.
Instant comfort. 5,000 miles later? Still riding with no issues. Its a no-brainer really.
This is more comfortable than my Brooks. I have less than 300 miles on it so the verdict is still out. At 67 I am searching for comfort.
I have 2 of these saddles, 1 on my road Bike and 1 on my gravel bike, and a Very comfortable saddle for me. I am 6'3 240 lbs and tried different types of saddles but The Fizik Aliante Gamma saddle is the way to go!!!!
perfect saddle for a 500 mile ride from the Niagara River to the Hudson River
Excellent saddle!!!!
This is the third saddle I have purchased of the same kind in about 10 years. My first saddle decreased the amount of numb toes dramatically on long road rides. I have since sold my road bike and purchased the last 2 saddles for my mountain bikes. They have held up well in spite of not being made for mountain bike the crashing.
Excellent fit & comfort for me - 6'2 250 - road bike rides 3-5x per week
Im 58 and need a seat thats comfortable and yet light. This is the ticket! First ride and ahhhh happiness. Get one.
For those new to cycling, the Aliante is a great place to start in the world of road bike saddles. Moderately padded, pretty light, very comfortable. While some riders may eventually transition to super-light saddles, many riders could spend their whole cycling life on an Aliante.
The Aliante delivers maximum comfort to pro riders and weekend warriors alike.
One of many saddles that I have tried, or am trying. I like the shape. I do not like the cover. I would prefer leather, and I like the ability to slide on the saddle. If you don't, then this might be a good cover for you.
