Next up .. How to Fix a Beta Max Video Player.
Just because someone has the know-how to refurbish a saddle, doesn't mean that there is any logic to doing it. And there's the cost.
looking for UK cycle saddle refurbisher ?

I should coco.
Re: looking for UK cycle saddle refurbisher ?
My point exactly. The jacket i used cost 2 quid. A tube of contact adhesive 1.
3 quid and half an hour.
I won't mend complex stuff and saddles with multiple panels etc are fiddly but a simple one is no more complicated than patching a tube.
Paying someone to fix it would [i][/i] be daft as i bet the frame will go in another 10 years.

Thanks. I’d read about his expertise but lost his contact details.gaz wrote: ↑27 Jul 2020, 1:32pm No, the 100% dyed-in-the-wool CTC answer would be to give details for Tony Colegrave, a former Brooks employee who, BITD, advertised his saddle repair and rejuvination services in Cycle (or more likely one of its predecessors). Hasn't had a mention for a little more than eight years on these boards and may have retired, moved or even joined the choir celestial.
