This model has been demoed or previously mounted.
OPTIMA, our high performance with the same sleek, low-profile design as our MODUS saddle and the greatest shock absorbing and gold standard in bike saddle comfort from our patented Reactive Padding™.
Zeta's specialized padding design for bike saddles was created by our founder to solve the complex issues of soft tissue and boney contact pressure and impact forces of the riders body against the saddle over periods of time.
Bike saddle contact pressure, friction, and the ground reaction forces coming up into the rider through the bicycle create increasing discomfort, compression of soft tissues, and potentially perineal region blood flow and/or nerve entrapment.
Available with titanium rails and full carbon fiber with carbon rails.
Designed by a doctor and avid cyclist, Zeta Saddles patented Reactive Padding™

You put this on your wall and you're guaranteed to look at it every time you walk by. Where is that? How did he get that shot? and I wish I could ride there are questions you will ask every time you see these EPIC pics.
This saddle takes the edge off of all variety of bumps and roughness.
Thanks again for the ultima and the baseball cap!! I just placed another order I’m on my 3rd one now!!
The ZETA optima resolved sitting issues. Comfortable! Used on a two day shakedown overnighter ride and then a 5 day bikepacking tour in Kentucky. All good for longer trips.
Very comfy saddle! Bought used but the saddle was in like-new condition! Great customer service and fast shipping
Didn't know it was coming - needed ateast a large, but received a S/M! Too bad, nice hat!
Riding on Zwift I find that I sit a lot more than I would on the road. This saddle actually made my long rides less painful, No numbness or soreness at any point
I’ve tried practically every brand of saddle (some more than once), even a couple 3D printed saddles. The Zeta Optima is by far the best fitting, and most comfortable saddle I've tried. Before the Zeta I could only manage 45-60 minutes pain-free; with the Zeta I’m still comfortable after 2+ hours of riding!
The optima is the 6th saddle I've tried in my search for comfort on my bike and it feels like it might be the one. Its the right width for me and the padding is softer than others i've tried while still providing support. Yes, it was pre-owned but it looks brand new.
It's the shape I prefer and is very well-made with just enough cushion. I'm considering getting a second one for my other road bike that has the saddle I love so much it's now held together with duck tape.
1. Unparalleled customer support. Dr. Patrick seems sincerely committed to bringing seat comfort to the biking world.
2. Ultima is the best saddle (of 5) that I've had on this road bike (an older Trek Madone). At the start of a ride, the saddle seems firmer than I initally had expected--apparently, in order to avoid having the cushioning bottom out (so to speak). More importantly, though: The Ultima is *more comfortable than any of my previous saddles a few miles in and beyond, when it matters the most.
This is a game changer, I switched to Zeta based on a recommendation and was shocked my how much more comfortable this seat is than anything else I've tried. No pain or soreness whatsoever.
I have messed up sit bones, my right side has been stressed forever. I was using Specialized Mmic 143mm, tried Bi-Saddle, not good for me, then back to a Specialized Power Saddle 155mm, but because of the back end wide edged, it was rubbing my hamstring no matter what I adjusted.
So thought lets try the Zeta Optima, because it was as wide as I needed 155 mm, but the shape of a 143 mm. First ride took some adjustment; I only have 75 miles so far, but this is most definitely a keeper.
I was very pleased with my first used Optima saddle and recently bought another used Optima in the slightly wider version. Both are great. I think I am going to like the slightly larger version better.
