Lovatt & Ricketts Rubicon Endurance Saddle




























The Rubicon’s unique innovative saddle tree featuring a more open pommel and swept back tree points, which gives a whole new freedom to the movement of the horse, eliminating restrictions in the shoulder area. The stirrup bars are located in a centered position, thus enabling the rider to achieve a comfortable leg position over long distances. Our stirrup bars are hinged relieving any pressure on the horse that is a common problem in this area were the stirrup leathers are attached. Our swing stirrup bars are made of the highest quality Heavyweight stainless steel and crafted to be unobtrusive to the rider’s thigh, which is a common problem associated with long distance riding.

English wool serge lined panels stuffed with the finest 100% English lamb’s wool to assure you of the ultimate in comfort for your horses back. This model features our unique billeting system offering the rider the flexibility to move the billets to give you the perfect girth line. The Rubicon™ model has been fitted successfully on many breeds of horse.

Lovatt & Ricketts® Saddle Trees Our saddles trees are manufactured in our own saddletree department using the finest laminated birch wood and reinforced with steel for strength. Each tree is specifically made for each model, designed by us and produced by our own Master saddletree makers. All of our trees conform to British Standards Institution 6635 so you can be assured of quality strength and reliability.

The new L&R® Double Position Swing Bar allows the rider to change stirrup length to maintain a balanced position in the saddle while riding different disciplines. For example, Jumping or Trotting hills with a shorter stirrup, the front groove balances the riders more forward position. For Trail Riding or Endurance, the rider has a more vertical position and the back groove provides a more stable balance point. Other Rubicon™ Features
