    The Barnsby Xtreem Event saddle is expertly designed to offer event riders the ultimate competitive edge. Weighing just an incredible 3.5kg, the design registered Barnsby Xtreem Event is probably the lightest event saddle in the world.
    With a laid back cantle to create the perfect event seat, all over waxed leather for ultimate grip and mono flap for optimised leg contact the Barnsby Xtreem Event is a revolution in saddle design.
    What makes the saddle so different, and explains its super light weight, is its tree (patent pending). A product of Barnsby’s unrivalled skills in tree making, the basic component is unique in that it is made from carbon fibre — the incredibly strong featherweight material used in Formula 1 racing cars.
    Throughout the saddle, every possible weight reducing technique has been employed, with even the flap tailored to remove any excess leather, producing a modern, individual shape. The result is ultra close contact and the most radical saddle that Barnsby has ever produced.
