can anyone recover a leather saddle? (& is it worth the cost?)

(1/2) > >>

evening radsters

got an old saddle on my mtb in the shed - its leather is knackered but otherwise in good nick, rails are titanium so no corrosion!
I bought it cheap off someone at work years ago but didn't really want to chuck it away as it's so light

anyone know where i might be able to get it redone?

cheers

griff:
cheers glen - will have another look (am sure mrs griff must have an old handbag somewhere)

the funny thing is what i can see of it underneath the leather/padding looks like an uncomfortable plastic bmx seat  :LolLolLolLol:

meticulous:
i've heard that cobblers can do this....

monkian:
I think dannywhiteley did a nice recover job recently ??? ???
Didn't he have to man-up and go a buy himself a handbag from Tesco for it ;D

I guess Impact adhesive would be the stuff to use :daumenhoch:

MartyC:
I'm sure there is a thread on this in the Tech Stickies section, Mark J and Steve P have both recovered leather/suede Kashimaxs and posted step by step guides  :daumenhoch:
