The Australian designed Bambach Saddle Seat has been in production for over 30 years. This particular model features a longer, flatter front pommel with a wider seat in the rear. It was designed based upon feedback from men who felt the standard models were too "short" and restrictive. The greater width at the rear offers ample support and cushioning for those of larger or heavier build. Although more suitable for men, women with wider hips or larger frame may also find it a suitable fit. This particular model is best suited for those over 5'7" and up to about 6'3". Shorter individuals or those with average or slender build will most likely not find this seat overly comfortable. The upholstery is high quality vinyl that offers a supple leather-like feel.
