SOLD! - 16”/17.5” DP Quantum Short & Light SZ Western Saddle
Demo condition.
DP Saddle size S2, which is equivalent to a size 16” western saddle & a size 17.5” english saddle.
For those who want a western saddle that shorter and lighter - this is it! It is unheard of, but it's a western saddle built on an English flexible tree!
English rigging: Two billets form a Y for stability and attach with a dressage length girth.
Completely adjustable gullet, but it’s currently configured to measure 7.25” dot to dot.
These innovative saddles have an Ultra Flex Tree with a completely adjustable gullet. With a simple turn of the DP Allen Wrench, the gullet adjusts from narrow to extra wide, making it possible to fit many different horse's conformations. This makes it very easy to ride several horses in the same saddle, solves saddle fit problems, and can adjust to your horse as he gains or looses weight or muscle.
Wool flocked panels are comfortable for horse and rider and can be traditionally re-flocked if ever needed or for a customized saddle fit.
Another feature unique to these saddles is the Ultra-Flex tree made of high quality carbon fiber, and the panels are attached only at the front and the back of the tree. This provides maximum comfort for the horse while turning and bending. It also eases the pressure normally applied to the spine, as the panels give slightly so that the spine doesn't have to.
Excellent choice for long trail rides, distance riding or endurance. This saddle has a soft padded seat. Short base, light weight and wool flocked panels that can be restuffed by a saddle fitter when needed or to customize it to your horse. The short round base is also fabulous for fitting short backed horses.
Comes with rawhide western stirrups.
Sold with a nylon DP Saddlery saddle cover & a storage pouch for the DP Allen Wrench.
Weight: 22 lbs.
Saddle length: Approximately 22.5 inches - depending on seat size.
