Having used Bontrager Montrose saddles on two of my bikes for over 3000 miles of road riding and being 100% happy with the quality, I chose Bontrager again as I wanted to try a shorter nose saddle, so bought the Aeolus. Having now completed 5 x 50 mile plus rides on it, I can say it is comfortable, very supportive & silent (some people posting have said they creak, mine is fitted correctly and I weigh 69kg and mine is silent), the quality can not be faulted. I have had £150 saddles in the past and the quality of manufacture of this saddle is every bit as good as much dearer saddles. Saddles are personal, what works for one may not work for others, but I am 100% happy with mine. Excellent speed and service from Sigma (as usual). Thank you.
Product Details
Bontrager Aeolus Comp Saddle
Ensuring supreme comfort in an aerodynamic, aggressive riding position, the Bontrager Aeolus Comp Saddle has a wider, shorter nose than a traditional saddle shape and a split design with a cut-out that runs the length of the saddle. The aim of this is to minimise pressure on delicate soft tissue and to optimise power transfer. The rails are positioned at the front of the saddle to allow just the right amount of flex for compliance and effective vibration damping. A Blendr mount can be purchased separately for sleek integration of your rear light.

Reviews
More effective relief channel that the Specialized Power, but the nose is way too wide and caused irritating thigh rub. Sold it for a Specialized Phenom, which is the most comfortable saddle I've ridden in many years.
