17.5 inch Ideal 1550 GPD Brown Wide

Saddles are permitted on a 5-day USA mainland trial. Simply add the saddle to your basket and proceed to check out. The trial starts on the day you receive the saddle.

Full payment for the saddle is taken at the point of checkout. If the saddle fits, great! No further action is required.

Is your fitter not coming until next week? No problem!

Select your estimated delivery date at checkout. Please note we recommend having the saddle delivered 2 working days before your saddle fitting appointment in case of any unexpected delays with the courier.

Sadly, we cannot offer a trial outside of Mainland USA. However, most of our international clients still find it cheaper to import a quality saddle from The Saddle Bank UK than to source one in their own country.
