What is the difference between saddle seat and western seat?
Marina3000
Saddle seat is a type of English riding that involves a high-stepping horse, and the rider has his/her legs farther out in front than in most English saddles. Western is a type of riding where the saddle has a horn, and is deeper and more secure than an English saddle. Western riders do not jump.

Where can you find a western flyer bike seat for a 20 inch?
Generally speaking bike saddles aren't specific for one particular bike, so you don't have to look for a saddle from western flyer - unless you're looking to do an all-out restoration. What you need to keep track of though is that there are a few different seat post diameters and a couple of different ways of clamping the saddle to the seat post. But as long as you manage to match that you can buy whatever saddle you want.
