Reviews over the

Bontrager Verse Elite

I have already immediately ridden 150 km in the Ardennes with the saddle and I really liked it. No pain points and comfortable.

Pros & Cons

being able to test and return a saddle that doesn't fit is a big plus

I tried several saddles but almost all of them were too hard for me (no seat bones). And each time I got sore from my sit bones after about 25 km of good cycling, even further into the spring and so after several rides. Thanks to the 30-day return guarantee, I tried this saddle and it is just right. At a seat bone width of 11.5, 155 was the right size for me. It's firm but not hard, Another plus was the cover: on this I don't slide forward slowly like with other saddles. The shape is also nice: not too thin tip and fine width of the seat area. This makes a big difference to the enjoyment of cycling (I don't have to change my seat after 25 km) and therefore to my speed, because I can stay in the right position for *much* longer.

Pros & Cons

Yes

Pros & Cons

Already done some rides with this saddle, including a 125km ride. No saddle sore. Sits comfortably

Pros & Cons

Saddle for mountain bike use. Doesn't slip on the seat, easy to clean and seems resistant to falls and scratches. Once adjusted, it's almost "forgettable". Top notch as far as I'm concerned. No more ischial or lumbar pain.

This saddle suits me quite well. It's comfortable, but a little heavy compared to the competition.

Pros & Cons

Years of coming off the bike with sensitive "noble parts". Different bikes, different saddles. Cycled 180km this week.... I wish I had bought this saddle earlier!

Pros & Cons

After the first ride on this saddle no regrets about the purchase.

Pros & Cons

Very good product

Mantel's saddle selection tool is a godsend! I too sat on cardboard for 5 minutes.... and then answer the questions. But then you also get good advice! Since this saddle I no longer have a numb feeling after an hour of cycling. If this saddle comes out of the test as advice, then it is highly recommended.

Pros & Cons

I'm riding a spark with the original saddle, I couldn't do more than 40kms because of pain in my posterior, I replaced the saddle with a Bontrager Verse Elite, I've done 62kms and no severe pain.

Pros & Cons

I was able to try the saddle with the 30-day money back guarantee mode. Which is very useful for those who have doubts and I am very satisfied

Pros & Cons

1st test ride done, had no saddle pain at all, saddle did not sag far and I weigh 97 kg after all. Fine lightweight and yet very sturdy.

Pros & Cons

This saddle fits me perfectly as I am 100 mm between the seat bones and sit quite still on the saddle.

Pros & Cons

I'm 100 mm between my sit bones and this saddle fit me perfectly,

Pros & Cons

Very comfortable, just you need to find your size and forget about the pain!!!

Good product.

Pros & Cons

I really have less saddle soreness with this saddle than with my previous, closed saddle!

Pros & Cons

It's easy to adjust and quick to get used to. If you choose the right saddle length, it's a saddle for life.

Pros & Cons

Got the saddle for mountain biking. In the woods, the saddle doesn't matter so much. Then there is so much variety. But the mountain bike is also on the trainer a lot in the winter. Then I am often longer in the saddle. I noticed that after 30 minutes I felt like the dog that just came out of anesthesia at the vet's and looked dumbfounded at that bandage between his legs. To avoid further reproductive issues, I sat down on a piece of cardboard. Took some margin and ended up with this saddle. The measuring instructions worked. By now I can bingwatch in this saddle without a penny of pain. No tingling and when I'm pi**ing after cycling, I can aim again and the floor stays clean as well.
