Default saddle repair



covered at: 'Recover your ugly saddle, Patching Small Hole in Leather
Saddle' -in bike.tech archives
plus one i cannot find


the goop saving idea is a good one.
i mention this again after the saddle, a spec minkow lost a three
rounder to a pond pine falling down the trunk in HD touring trim
leaving the seat rough sans covering one the abraded side.


I bought a new goop tube and forswore butt grease for several weeks but
after a good virgin tolulene spread from the new tube the temp fell
from 70 to 50 in 3 hours so i used the antique seat, soldiered on and
left the gooped spec in the shop for a week-several days beyond the
recommended cure.

the extra cure time results, with a new tube,in a very acceptable "new"
skin and is highly recommended.

keep dry and out of the uv
