Wanted: Saddle for sit bones measuring 130mm

Posted on
  • Looking for a good quality saddle that would fit 130mm nicely, trying to avoid buying new as they are all super expensive. Failing that, anyone who has any suggestions/recommendations on good saddles for petite riders please do pass them along! :)

  • are you sure it's 130mm because that is on the wide side.

  • pretty sure I went into sigma and got my sit bones measured, 130 is what they told me.

  • On a Brooks Team saddle that would put your sit bones right at the edge so you probably need a wider saddle.

  • Pretty sure they are after a 130mm wide saddle rather than a saddle for 130mm sit bones. Happy to be corrected...

    If that is the case, Specialized do them I believe.

  • Hi @carlito

    For £35, I bought this on here as a slim lightweight saddle (127mm, Ti rails, 181grams) for my narrow behind. In the end, it was a bit too narrow. Might work? £30?

  • thank you both!

    Ill have a look at specialised thank you @yeahdext

  • @adamdenw ill send you a PM thank you !

  • Yeah, what your sit-bones measure doesn't usually equate directly to the saddle width you need, ie as has been suggested above, 130mm sit-bones would probably have you on a 155mm saddle width at least! They obvs advised you need a 130mm saddle width....

  • I've run Fizik Arione on all my bikes - the classic/R5 is 132mm, R3/R1 is 126mm (in the regular fit) and the 00 is 124mm. I've had/have all except the 00 and love them.

  • I have a Cro-mo Fabric Line saddle in a 134mm and that is pretty much perfect for 130mm sit bone measurement. I bought it as my sit bones are also 130mm. However, I was glad I bought the 134mm! That's available, in good condition and little wear, for £15 + postage.
    All I will say is try to check out some 'test saddles' in a bike shop as you may find a wider saddle may suit you better. I have gone up to 144mm Fabric Line saddle and to be honest I'm not sure if I don't need something a little wider!
