Saddle question

I bought an REI Co-op Rev 20 bike for my 7yo. I would like to swap out the saddle for the wider Alpina Fietsen sprung saddle I fitted to her previous bike. The Alpina saddle attached on top of the seatpost using a pole clamp. The new bike uses a different rail clamp. Is it safe for me to disassemble the pole clamp and clamp the saddle by its rails to the new clamp? Thanks for the advice.

If the rails are within the same width apart, then absolutely (unless I'm missing something here).

Yep. 2-rail saddles are all the same; you're unlikely to have a 4-rail saddle.
