Lite Rider Endurance Saddle – Smooth Leather, Compact Comfort

The Lite Rider Endurance Saddle shares many qualities with the Aussie Endurance Saddle, yet it stands out in several key ways. First, this Australian saddle is crafted from smooth leather and does not feature the quilted seat that defines the Aussie model, which uses nubuck leather with a quilted pad.

Comfort and Design

The saddle rests on a highly comfortable, suspended‑webbed seat, and its tree incorporates a narrow‑twist profile. As a result, the saddle performs exceptionally well for both endurance and pleasure riding. Because its design is compact, it fits short‑backed horses particularly nicely. In addition, the single (mono) flap promotes a close‑contact feel for the rider.

Rigging Options

The rigging includes English billets plus three billet straps, giving riders multiple girthing choices. Moreover, a back D‑ring now comes standard for those who prefer to use a back cinch.

Condition
This gently used 18″ Lite Rider Saddle comes with 1″ leathers and black English stirrups. Since it has been ridden only a handful of times, the leather and saddle panel show virtually no wear.
