Our most versitle saddle
Lynx DT
Our most versatile saddle is excellent for light, all-mountain setups, yet the low profile design is also popular with freeride and downhill riders.
The Lynx DT features a synthetic top and Chromo rails for added durability yet it weighs in at only 292g. The narrow platform is firm while the soft nose compliments body english for those situations where the front of the saddle is used for traction and control.

Leather saddles can be treated with surface conditioners. Check with your local hardware store, shoe maker or leather specialist for available products. Note that different conditioners can have different effects on the leather (IE. softening or discoloration). The user takes all responsibility for the results of any treatments applied to the saddle.
It’s important to know that the cover of a saddle is made of soft material and by that nature, it will start changing from the day you start using it.
Leather saddles are likely to go through more change than DT saddles.
You can read the full user guide here, but to avoid any kind of creaking, make sure the rails and the seatpost clamp are spotlessly clean!
If something is creaking, remove the saddle from the post and make sure the rails and clamps are clean. You'd be amazing what a bit of dirt can do.
As for the finish, any DT saddles don't really need any aftercare. However it's not a bad idea to treat any leather saddle with some high quality leather treatment from time to time (like you might use for leather gloves for example).
