I know you are speaking of a Ti saddle and this one is not likely Ti (although
it doesn't say)... Check out Nashbar. In my current catalog, they show white, NOS Rolls for only $30. wrote: Anybody have experience with recovering bikes seats? I've been trying to find a white ti rolls and can't so I was pondering putting a white cover on one of my old ones. thanks |

Buy white saddle (perf or otherwise) and install on your existing Ti rails? Gotta be easier than covering. Ron wrote: Anybody have experience with recovering bikes seats?

You could also talk to a place that does motorcycle saddles, though bike saddle leather is usually epoxied on, and the upholstery on m/c's often held on by hooks. Heck, even a good upholstery shop might have ideas. Do check out Nashbar--I got a couple Selle Royal Prestige saddles with really nice leather covers from them for $4 each. NOS and look perfect on my old rides. Comfy too! |

Some personal experience. His jobs hold up very well through thousands
of sweaty-butted miles, and I'm very happy with both his work and his service. However... 1. He is in business because he acquired lots of automotive upholstery material. If that suede-like material is what you want (rather than white smooth leather), and you like his current colors, it's good. 2. No problem in heat and humidity. However, if you get caught out in the rain, the material is not waterproof. You'll finish the ride on a sponge which may not yet be dry the next day. dvt wrote: wrote: Anybody have experience with recovering bikes seats?
