Today’s numbering system reads like this:
The first 4 numbers represent the style number
The next 4 number represent the seat size and color (1608 – 16” seat and pecan color)
The next number represents the tree width (04 for semi and 05 for wide)
The next 4 numbers represent the month and year of manufacture (0108 – January of 2008)

thanks for that help... so am i safe in assuming this saddle is an older one that doesn't go by that system currently?

since it doesn't have the the 04 and the 05 in the number?

this is what the tag saids.... 1551 1608 0200 07
13 Park and Trail

thanks again

You can call or email Circle Y with your numbers and they will email you back and tell you all the details on your saddle

Easiest and best way IMO

also MOst of the Park and Trail saddles have the flex tree so... that may be why

accordign to the numbers your saddle is only a year old??

no... i bought it used off of ebay over a year ago now

i think i will do what you suggested and email them

last time i called on another saddle the gentleman i talked to was kind of rude and not very helpful

i want to sell the saddle... but not sure what it is worth. the price i paid for it, i believe i over paid... so wondering what a good starting point would be for a price.
