Of all the new 'high performance' saddles out there (and I have, or demo'd them all), I have to say that the TreeAustria is one of the most durable, and well made saddles out there....

 

Pound for pound, they are an excellent value for your coin.

i'm in the market for a new harness as well. the Tree Austria is on the short list. can it take suspenders for the days with a big saw hanging.

 

oh and what are the gear loops on the back like, i cant really see from the picture.

The gear loops are one of the failings of the TA. They work o.k. but could be better.

it has suspenders, i've still got them but no harness for them to go with. problems with the austria, once the 'D' goes you have to chuck the whole thing out(thats why i went for the tree motion in the end), and the weedy stretchy straps for the leg loops fail. i still reckon it's more comfy than the tree motion.

 

linda: the lower D is better balanced but pinches the groin more, you shouldn't have that problem. just taking a guess are you linda(swedish girl ) from myerscough did the the degree with jez. you advised me on the tree austria

Both the Treemotion and the tree flex have the ability to adjust the height of the D ie the point of balance I find this very useful. The back support on the tree flex is great even with a big saw on it.

ha! ladies have bits that can get pinched as well! I've never had a saddle pinch the skin on the inside of my thighs as bad as the tree austria...!!!

Linda if your going to Capel I'll have one set up in a tree so you can give it a good go for yourself before you buy.

 

This is the thing, I can't go to Capel or anywhere else to try one on...I have to rely on you guys!
