    Riyadh's response to the Fizik Vento Argo Adaptive R1:
    Why: first reason is im sponsored by fizik so im able to ride their newest products! I rode their first 3d printed saddle before this current one, the antares versus evo adaptive, which i already loved and absolutely had no problems with saddle sores etc. Then when they released this new Argo Adaptive which is their short nose range of saddles, it was a no brainer. It feels really comfortable and the shape suits me! To compare with the specialized, id say the fizik argo adaptive probable has parts which are softer while the power still pretty much feels like a standard saddle. But ive never ridden the power 3d saddle so i cant really compare it well.

    I like how a pro cyclist like him doesn't even ride the latest and most expensive bike. Goes to show that it's still the rider that matters. Kudos to this dude! Keep representing!

    Great guy, who shows it's not the bike it's the man behind the handlebars. Hard to find humble cyclists like him🙂

    This bike looks well used, every scratch and mark shows that the rider has massive experience on competitive riding.
    He uses the bike as a tool not as an investment to display!

    Don't get it! Why his bike weight so much 🤔.
    I got a Ridley Noah SL in size XS and come in under 7kg with 60mm wheels.
    Anyway all the best towards your pro journey. Hope you will get more sponsored soon. 👍👍

    instead of saying rim brakes suck in the rain, keep it real and say dont ride in the rain and if you do which you dont use training wheels.

      @@OompaLoompaCycling ppl always mention rain when no one rides in it. and if they did ride in it, dont use youre race wheels it will ruin the bearings and brake tracks, use alloys. so there goes the rain excuse for rim brakes. the only thing to worry about is when decending down mountains. also practice panic breaking with disc, so have a friend set up a surprise deadly trap during one of your rides and practice not locking up the brakes. cars have anti lock brakes but theyre worthless right? who needs anti lock brakes when we can practice panic breaking, the practice may kill us tho so just be ready at all times i guess.
