Re: [RC] Ortho-flex saddles - rides2farI was looking into used ortho flex saddles. I guess there were two companies> the original in MO and the new one in Arkansas. Does anyone know if there is> a difference in the quality of the saddles; new vs old company or are they> the same. I don't know about the ones from the newer company, but one thing you have to watch for with the old company is that they were constantly changing and trying to improve, so the same model saddle made in different years can have a lot of variety. My Express is number 003 so I'm guessing it was the original plan. My daughter's is number 027. I can tell hers had a different tree when I sit on it. Of course she likes hers better, I like mine. The woman who had hers had paid to have dropped rigging added. It's very well done, but now hers weighs more. A friend of mine has one of the last ones made by the original company. Her panels have spacers on them that make it sit kind of high and she wants to remove them. I sent mine back for new panels at one time and it came back with a different type spacers, which I removed. These are all the same model saddle but have a lot of variety. By the way, if you're interested in an Express made by the original MO company that looks like it was made yesterday, I'll give you her address. She prefers her old original and wants to sell the Express.
