Does anyone have
recommendations for good stirrups that fit on Wintec webbers for a light
heavyweight rider with mildly arthritic knees? My eighth anniversary is
coming up, so I know what my husband is going to get me instead of
roses!
*I'm using wintec webbers on a couple of Reactor
Panel saddles. One saddle has Flexride stirrups with cages, which I
loved for years;and have some flex to absorb shock. I also have a couple of
Easy ride stirrips with cages.
These have a slighlty bigger foot platform (would
be a better choice for a big foot like mine, or a man's
foot)...and
have a rubber piece at the top to absorb shock
and also a thick foam platform for your foot. I would say for, me, the
Easyrides have a bit more stability.
I love the flexrides as they are the lightest of
the two....but I did have a fair number of the cages break over the years.
The easyrides are clunkier looking and bigger
(more to bang around when moving saddles,etc),but right now seem to be working
best for me....
Either stirrup needs to be ordered with the
narrower top for the webbers or english leathers.
