  1. 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

    just put grease on the rails

  3. 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.

    Grease where the saddle rails are in the seatpost?

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

    I'll try that, since the noise comes from within the
    saddle itself.

    Thanks!
