The Peatys Monarch is a trail-focused mountain bike saddle for riders who want proper support on long climbs without a bulky shape getting in the way once the trail points down. Its 145mm-wide platform, ramped tail and pressure-relief channel are paired with Throne Foam and a flex-tuned rail system to take the edge off rough ground.
Comfort that stays out of the way
At 260mm long, the Monarch gives you room to move while keeping enough support for technical seated climbing. The flat nose helps when you need to shift forward, the ramped tail adds support under power, and the 40mm pressure-relief channel reduces pressure through the centre of the saddle.
Service it, don’t bin it
The topper and rails can be separated using 2mm and 3mm Allen keys, so dirt can be cleaned out and the contact points re-greased if the saddle starts to creak. The removable rail design also makes replacement and end-of-life recycling more practical than on a conventional permanently assembled saddle.
Why we like it
Most saddles become disposable once grime works into the rail interfaces or a rail is damaged. Monarch’s serviceable construction is a genuinely useful difference: it gives you a realistic way to restore quiet running and keep an otherwise sound saddle on the bike for longer.
Built for hard use
A seamless waterproof PU cover protects the Throne Foam without exposed stitching or staples. Crash-resistant rear shoulders guard the vulnerable edges, while the underside includes a discreet grab handle for lifting the bike over obstacles or pushing up steep sections.

Peatys 30-day rider comfort and performance guarantee, subject to the brand’s guarantee terms
The 145mm-wide shape, pressure-relief channel and ramped tail support seated climbing without making the saddle awkward when you need to move around. Throne Foam and the suspended rail system help soften chatter and repeated impacts.
Service it instead of replacing it
The topper and rails separate with 2mm and 3mm Allen keys, making it possible to clean and re-grease the contact points that can cause saddle creaks. Removable rails also make damage repair and material separation more practical.
Protected where trail saddles get hit
A seamless waterproof cover keeps stitching and staples away from the rider, while reinforced rear shoulders protect the most exposed edges in a crash. Peatys tested the design for more than 1,000km through a British winter.
30 days to find your fit
Saddle fit is personal, so Peatys backs the Monarch with a 30-day rider comfort and performance guarantee. It gives you time to assess the shape properly on the trail, subject to the brand’s guarantee terms.
