Short test of the Fizik Terra Aidon X1 E-MTB saddle
The Aidon is the first E-MTB saddle from the traditional brand Fizik. The Italians have already got a lot right with their debut product.
The raised rear end in particular offers a good compromise between uphill support and freedom of movement downhill. The cut-out in the centre of the saddle provides relief in the perineal area and is well protected against splashing dirt. Minor drawbacks: adjusting the tilt requires some fine-tuning, the upper material is too slippery and the padding in the rear is relatively soft for long rides. With a sit bone distance of 12.5 centimetres and more, you should definitely go for the wider version of the Fizik e-mountainbike saddle.
