In triathlon it’s really key to be able to hold an aero riding position all the way, which is why the Fizik Aeris Long Distance Tri saddle has a split nose for pressure relief and lots of padding at the front. It also features a hook to hold the bike in race transition zones and an integrated bottle cage attachment. As an industrial designer in this process you’re tasked with meeting requirements from professional athletes, ergonomic experts, engineers and product managers, so the key to a successful product is processing all this info and having a collaborative approach.
