Strengths: weight, comfortWeaknesses: expensive if paying retailBottom Line: rode the regular arione for a couple years and would get numbness in my groin within about 30-60 minutes . i am much more comfortable with the flatter profile of the cx carbon (carbon rails and shell) and numbness is gone. wish I had switched sooner plus I got a great deal on eBay.

Strengths: Comfort, looks, light weight, price for what you get.Weaknesses: For me personally, there are none.Bottom Line: Have been playing around with quite a few saddles over the last year but keep coming back to this one.
The standard Arione is too soft for me and perhaps a bit too rounded in it's profile. Although comfortable, I would get hotspots about 20 mins into the ride.
This being a bit flatter and lighter in the padding department does the job nicely.
Bike Setup: Scott Addict SL - Dura Ace 7900 - Dura Ace C24 Clincher Wheels.

Strengths: Good fit for me comfortable from first ride softer ride, and weight saving also.Weaknesses: None so farBottom Line: I was using an original Fizik Arione saddle on my old road bike and bought the new Fizik Arione CX Carbon Braided Rails for my new build.

Strengths: looksWeaknesses: weight saving = numb assBottom Line: Have to agree with other reviewer. I too had th e standard arione and thought I'd upgrade to the new CX. Not because I am a weight weenie but I figured if they have released a new model after the old one it had to be good. I was disappointed but my loss is someone else gain as I have swapped for the "old school" arione and will be comfy again.
