Sobridge crosby prix st george saddle?

Postby Tanga » Mon May 10, 2021 8:28 pm

I have the old Albion I bought at a great price that I really like (though I think a slightly wide twist, I guess would suit me better) but I think it's a medium and that one of the girls cold use slightly wider.

I found a Sobridge Crosby prix st george for a good price on sale, probably $300-$325 with shipping. It's a medium wide and I'm waiting on a response to see if it has the flatter seat I much prefer. It looks in very good condition.

Any experience with these? Any feedback appreciated.

Do you mean the sofride? Both my mom and aunt ride in older models. It's a very comfortable saddle, and works really well for both of them. Most are foam flocked, but some are wool flocked.

Yes, sorry! I saw some pictures and the seat is very deep, giving less room to sit, so I don't think it will work. I would get an 19" if I could find one. So I'm not taking the chance on getting a saddle that won't work, even at a great price. I did that once and it's still in the garage.

Yeah. It's deep. Between that and the stirrup bar placement, it doesn't work for me. But, neither my mom nor aunt are tall-ish with long legs.
