I am trying to find a second hand Albion SL dressage saddle, 17.5 inch medium fit. Have tried eBay and Saddlesdirect. Does anyone else have any ideas? Finances tight hence need for a second hand one. Thank you.

I know of a K2 for sale - it's one of the newer style one with the (I think) lighter weight trees. I'd need to find out what size, but thinking about size of horse that currently uses it I'd guess it would be towards the 'wide' size. If you are interested I can get more information for you. I do know that it's about 3 years old, black and has been kept in very good condition - other than that I'd be guessing. Also the owner of saddle is based in West Yorkshire - where are you?

I know of an 18in Albion for sale, but I'm not sure what exact model. Will try to find out if you want?

Try horsequest too. Also Martin Wilkinson saddlers do a good range of second hand ones.

Whereabouts are you? And what is the budget? I think my saddler has some that would suit.

Im in Suffolk but obviously willing to pay postage to get something.
Any info greatly appreciated. I was told I needed an SL or SLK as they have deeper rear gussets to lift back of saddle more as at the mo his high wither is meaning I need to use a rear riser pad but cant do this as that makes saddle too tight in front. Recommended either a kieffer or Albion but not had good experiences with Kieffers and know I love Albions to ride in so that was route I was going. He is def a medium as I had saddle fitter out last Friday. Budget wise can afford more than £700 including postage and preferably less!! Know SLK are more expensive but I need to find something asap as I am not enjoying riding so long in my very forward cut jumping saddle! Thanks.

18 inch would be fine as I am very tall and horse big enought to take bigger saddle, could you find out details?? Many thanks.
