Fizik Luce R1 Carbon Braided Saddle

Luce Carbon Large: a wider women’s saddle like no other.

Following our extensive research project fi’z:k undertook a whole new construction for the ultimately comfortable, high-performing women’s saddle, Luce. It has a wider sitting area shape narrowing down toward the nose for better weight distribution and less friction on the thighs. Luce Carbon Large is a wider option, to accommodate the best fit for all women cyclists, with a maximum width of 155mm.

To create a shape for truly comfortable high-performance long rides, we made the strong, light shell from three separate sections: a carbon reinforced nylon spine co-injected with two very flexible, strong panels made from a thermoplastic elastomer. We built the Luce Carbon Large on narrow carbon Mobius rail construction, accommodating a specially designed elongated pressure relief cut out, offering a combination of flexible support – called IschialFlex - under the sit-bones and comfortable freedom for the rider’s soft tissues. This unique shape that provides a perfect profile for female cyclists and maintains structural stability over time.

Luce Carbon Large - made for women - has a maximum width of 155mm and weighs just 185g.
