flexRider saddles?

hil529 · 08-04-2008, 07:37 PM

I had one for years and loved it to bits! I thought it was the greatest most comfy saddle ever! I was sooo bummed when my mare got too round for it and I sold it for a pony saddle (horrible mistake!) thinking Id never need that narrow of a tree. Well, I was wrong!! I need just that.

I have been saddle shopping, sort of. and well, I really want my old saddle back

i should have never sold it. But does anyone know where I could get this kind of saddle? I got mine from Stateline when they FIRST moved into petsmart (yeah it was that long ago). i paid like 300 for it, and should have never sold it.

so any thoughts?

also, anyone else have this kind of saddle?
your thoughts?

Sometimes you see them on e-Bay. Stateline closed out the Flex Riders a few years ago. A couple of friend's of Kendra's had those saddles. They seem similar to the HDR Advantage line.

Ah my friend just bought a used one for real cheap.

I LOVE it. But I can't find the same one anywhere!

I have a 16.5" FlexRider close contact complete package for sale for $600. Includes the saddle, girth, leathers, jointed irons with angled pads, saddle carrying bag, EZ view show pad with numbers, Toklat work pad, square raised bridle with Brian Isbell twisted D-ring snaffle, and bridle carrying bag. All are in brand new condition, used less than 20 times. I no longer have a hunt seat horse, my current mare does western only. This is over $1000 worth of equipment for $600 plus $40 shipping (UPS). Please email sheree-sims@live.com for more information.
