Saddle size..???

[kymw90]

I am looking at a gorgeous saddle! it so pretty! But its in a 12" saddle and I really really really want it!!! Will 12" be ok for me to sit in?? I have a 17" but its like massive for me. I'm 5'2 and small build.

Should I risk it????

I wouldn't. I had a 15in and it was ok in the seat, but the panels were all wrong. I an 5ft 2 and slim in build. I would go with a 16inch personally. x

12" is tiny. Its club saddle size

Thanks for the advice... Boohoo on the up side I have found another which is lush too! Sneaky saddle shop during lunch break Maybe when I'm feeling moneybag-ish I'll get it for my many nieces and nephews to ride in.

My son had a 12" saddle when he was 4!

12 inch is the size of a child cub saddle.
Unless you are very petit then yout won't fit in this saddle!
You will hurt your bum, be perched and tip forward!
