Hi, This is the 3rd Flie Titanium saddle I have that creaks after a few months of use. Can anyone comment on the Fizik Arione? Do you like it? And more importantly: is it silent? TIA, Derk |

That's true with a Flite. Its cousin the Tri-Matic, which I happen to like, has elastomers supporting the rail ends; these can squeak after time. Usually a shot of silicone oil quiets 'em down. Mike Yankee (Address is munged to thwart spammers. To reply, delete everything after "com".) |

Drip a little oil where the saddle rails enter the saddle as well.
