Cashel Removable Flank Cinch Assembly - Adjustable Rear Cinch

Stop Saddle Tipping on Steep Trails and Hard Stops

The Cashel Removable Flank Cinch Assembly is built for riders who need their saddle locked in place — whether you're descending a mountain switchback or making a hard stop on a cutting horse. Crafted from premium skirting leather with diamond stamping that matches Cashel Trail and Ranch saddles, this assembly delivers the stability double-rigged western setups require. Removable billets let you dial in the perfect fit for each horse in your string, and stainless steel hardware stands up to sweat and daily use without rusting out.

A flank cinch isn't optional gear if you ride steep country or work cattle — it's what keeps the cantle down and your weight centered when physics wants to tip you forward. This assembly comes complete with both connector billets, so you're ready to ride the day it arrives.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this flank cinch fit my specific horse and saddle?

Yes. The Cashel Removable Flank Cinch Assembly features adjustable billets that let you customize the length for most horses and double-rigged western saddles. Whether you ride a 14-hand mustang or a 16-hand ranch horse, the removable billets give you the adjustment range you need.

Q: Is the hardware durable enough for daily ranch work and heavy sweat?

Absolutely. Cashel uses stainless steel hardware throughout this assembly, chosen specifically for its ability to resist rust and corrosion even under constant moisture and friction. Riders who put their gear through daily use report years of reliable performance without hardware failure.

Q: Why do I need a flank cinch for trail riding?

A flank cinch is critical safety gear for trail riding, especially in steep or uneven terrain. It prevents the back of your saddle from tipping forward when you descend hills or make sudden stops, keeping your weight centered and your horse balanced. Without one, the cantle can lift and throw your position forward — a real risk on mountain trails or technical ground.
