#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Hmmm...I have an older Thorowgood (like 8-9years old) and I do remember it being really loud when I first got it, but now not so much. It is still a bit nosier than a traditional leather saddle but not nearly as bad as when it was brand spanking new. So give your saddle 8years and it should be quiet LOL
