The rise of electric-assisted cycling is expanding the possibilities of exploration on two wheels to new riders, places and terrains. As e-bikes become lighter and capable of longer, harder rides, finding components that are best suited to this type of cycling is essential. To support this pedaling revolution, fi'zi:k is bringing energy to the road with the new Terra Aidon X5 e-MTB saddle.

Of course, the ability to push into new areas brings with it a unique set of challenges for riders looking to maximize their e-MTB experience. For starters, e-mountain bikers spend more time seated than traditional off-road adventurers and are therefore most exposed to trail conditions, while mastering the trail from a seated position requires a stable, reliable pedal platform.

To meet these challenges, fi'zi:k has developed the new Terra Aidon saddle with the needs of e-riders in mind. For improved comfort on long and rough rides, the type 2 foam developed by fi'zi:k offers progressive padding that is thicker around the sit bones to support a more upright riding position. For additional pressure relief, a deep cut-out in the center of the saddle provides additional pressure relief and the new and innovative built-in splash guard blocks unwanted spray on wet rides.

The Terra Aidon has a shorter length for a confident riding position and full freedom of movement throughout the bike's suspension travel. A gradual profile allows for easy transitions and better control of the bike, while the scalloped rear end supports the rider both on the initial kick of electric assist and when turning quickly on steep, seated climbs.

The new Terra Aidon X5 is available with the ultra-strong aluminum track system in the proprietary Mobius closed-loop configuration for unmatched durability and support. The new Terra Aidon X5 saddles are available now.
