Just wondering if they are nylon and if they will dye (the seat, not the padded bit) :-\
-
the seat may dye, but the top padded part may soak up the colour but in a washed out way and not fully
got pic ?
cheers B :D

Cheers Bendy. :daumenhoch:
Its a faded orange one on the bay. The paded bit is knackered and i would replace it but just anxious as i know plastic doesnt dye does it.
-
da ja vu - haven't we spoke about this before ??? :D ;D
some seats do dye well - some don't
it's the nylon used in the seat along witha mixture of plastic - some have more (kashi) and some have none (sella aeroyals)
i know you want one but it will turn up soon ;)

:LolLolLolLol: yeah we have been here before, of sorts. Last time it was a trick top copy, the seat was fine but the white padding was yellowed. This one is much worse all round but a real trick top ::)
Bloody kids bikes eh, who'd have em :2funny: :2funny: :2funny:
