Terra Alpaca is a mountain bike saddle offering support and riding control for full-suspension trail bikes - in and out of the saddle, up or down the hills.
The Terra version of the Alpaca saddle is perfect for full-suspension trail bikes; it's designed to feel right whether your dropper post is extended for pedalling or dropped for descents. The 145mm wide saddle offers great pedalling support but it's also easy to move around on. A gradual transition from the nose to the wings allows constant fore and aft position changes, while the slightly waved tail discretely supports your lower back.
Fizik designed the saddle to help you explore the toughest trails. So, the nose is wide and flat, offering a solid platform to push against as you shimmy forward to maintain traction when tackling steep climbs. For added comfort an ergonomic indent relieves soft tissue pressure without interfering with baggy riding shorts.
Rugged conditions and rowdy riding require solid solutions, that's why the Alpaca saddles feature a mobius, closed loop rail design, for added strength and weight distribution, making snapping saddles on heavy landings a thing of the past.
Once the climbs are conquered and the trail turns downhill, with dropper post lowered the saddle becomes a steering device. Terra Alpaca's rounded contours allow smooth and fast movement of the legs around the saddle to help maintain control. Flexible edges along the wings and rear end protect the rider's inner legs from bruising.
This saddle also comes with Fizik's Alpaca Tool Carrier; an incognito approach to tool storage. Its minimal design means that tools sit stealthily beneath the saddle, tucked away but ready for repairs and it included a twelve-feature multitool with inflation head, removable housing for two CO2 cartridges, reusable zip ties and extra space for other small essentials.
