Nothing wrong with this saddle but I do find it quite hard and unforgiving. Its very well put together but I am not sure it exactly suits me. Great thing about Bontrager saddles is that they come with a 30 day unconditional trial.
Product Details
Bontrager Verse Elite Saddle
Bontrager's Verse Elite combines optimised foam padding, an advanced biomechanical shape and light, strong austenite rails to create a lightweight saddle designed for performance and comfort. There's a full cutout that significantly reduces excess pressure on soft tissue, and the saddle is available in a range of widths, with plenty of clamping adjustability so you can dial in your position perfectly. This is a versatile choice, suited to all genders and a range of riding disciplines.

Went for a great bike-fit at Sigma Sports in Oakham and this saddle was recommended and is an absolute revelation. I bought one for each of my bikes and another for my Wattbike!

Is it possible to compare this to the Aeolus saddle? I loved the Aeolus but had to give it up as the nose was too wide for me, is the Verse any different? Ta
Hi Ian, The verses seems to have a very similar nose to it so I would say this will not be an option for you, Many thanks Joe W
