Hi everyone - Im looking for a cheap 2nd hand wintec dressage, and i just cant find any on ebay or preloved at the moment!! Im looking for a wintec pro or isabell and it has to be 17 1/2" the only ones i can find on preloved arent answering my questions so i assume theyre not for sale any more.

Are there any other websites i should be looking at? Any lovely shoppers out there have any ideas? Im at a loss and i cant afford the £500+ new price tag!

Thank you :)

I have for sale a Wintec Isabell Dressage saddle in black. It is in very good condition and has been well looked after. This saddle is incredibly comfortable and puts you in a correct dressage position. It is the cair model and currently has a red narrow gullet which can be changed to fit the width of your horse. This saddle has been very good for my horse as I was able to change the saddle width as my horse changed shape (which was alot!). Selling as have now saved to buy my dream dressage saddle.

Kiristamm you are so lovely, thank you so much for your help :) Ill have a talk to them but its a bit out of my price range, i was hoping for about £200 - 250. I know that isnt alot and im happy to just have the pro saddle as i realise the isabell is worth more! I also dont mind condition.

It has to be 17 1/2" as i bought a 17" pro a couple of weeks ago and its too small for the rider, and a 18" is too big for the horse! Narrowing my market quite a bit!
A few weeks ago there were millions of 17 1/2" and i thought we needed a 17", now i need a 17 1/2" all i can find are 17".

:(

Thank you so much for your help though its very kind of you, i fear i may just have to be very patient! :)

Yes, It sit me in the right part of the saddle and the stirrup bars are more underneath you hip so you have a better Ear shoulder hip heal line, and the knee rolls move so your thigh doesn't swing in the saddle. It is like sitting in a mold of you backside!!! I had an Albion SLK and would never go back! the Wintec one is even better because it has swede and you barely move. I use a Wintec one on my friends Dressage horse, because you don't move around unnecessarily in the saddle the horse ends up more responsive to your aids!

Can you tell I love them! I haven't tried the new version though...
