Saddle query

[welshstar]

I know this could be in another area but i thought it might get more views in here

I'm interested in an old pessoa jumping saddle (not quite sure how old but the 'pessoa' is just written in gold- not on plate or anything- just along from the skirt) but i'd just like peoples opinions on them?
It doesn't have much detail so i'm gonig to ask a few questions but i'd just like to know whether these have nice knee support ect..

Thanks

Also further to this- what do the wintec close contact saddles ride like? do you mold into them well or is it all a little bit perched up?

I have a wintec (can't comment on the Pessoa - far, far above my price range!_ but I have found it to be great actually. Easy to adjust, cheap and don't look too bad either. So two thumbs up from me for the fit and ride of those. Of course, it is 'synthetic' so it is never going to 'shape' in the same way a leather saddle is, but if you are budget conscious, and want something that you rarely have to clean, go for the Wintec.

Hope that helps!
