Saddle Library is closed for the duration of Covid-19.

A saddle what?

A saddle library! Like with books, but for saddles.

We've gotten a nice selection of different saddles for different butts. Everyone is shaped differently, and saddles aren't necessarily gender-specific or even related to gender, (even if a manufacturer says so.)

It's £15 to join and have access to the library.

If you'd like to book an appointment to visit CLICK HERE. We will measure your sit bones and lower back flexibility, and then help choose a few saddles to test out. We'll also show you how to properly set up a new saddle, and how to adjust it safely.

If you get on with a saddle, you can take it home for 2 weeks to test it out under real life conditions. If you like it, we can order a new one for you. If you don't, come back to exchange it for a different one.

Book your appointment today!

How does it work?

Book an appointment during weekday drop in hours (Wed 1 - 5pm, Thu 1 - 8pm, Fri 1 - 5pm) or our Women and Gender-variant night, and pay £15 (non-refundable / one-off contribution) to join the library. You'll have to agree and sign our Terms & Conditions (see below). Have a short chat with us to figure out what your issues are and which saddles may best suit your needs We'll measure you with our ProLogo My Own fitting system to get your sit bone measurements We'll then help you select which saddles to try out and put them on your bike for a test ride Choose one (1) saddle to take home for (two) 2 weeks See if you get on with it - if you don't, bring it back within two weeks to check out another saddle. Find one you like? You can order it through us! Huzzah!! Butts are happy!
