Contour Saddle:
- This large saddle is contoured to help tilt the pelvis to stop the rider sliding forward on the saddle.Ā
- Ā The contoured shape holds the pelvis in a good position and the raised front section helps to abduct the legs to stop scissoring or the coming together of the knees.Ā
- Its anatomic shape means that rider sits more into the saddle
- The seat shape angles the pelvis to a better riding position
- Its broad which again gives good pelvic stability.
- There is a raised medial section in the seat that acts in the same way as pommel by helping to abduct the legs slightly.

Both styles of trunk support (Basic Adjustable Back Trunk Support and In Line Trunk Support) can be used with the contour saddle.
