In this video, I try to repair a vintage town bike saddle.
The saddle came on a 1975 Raleigh Wayfarer and after years of use the vinyl had torn and the plastic base cracked. I've looked at various repairs and well, this is my attempt.
Strip off old vinyl - Key the plastic base - Apply glue to both foam and base - Stick and trim - Apply glue to both foam and vinyl - Place and stretch.
I'm giving the finish a 5.5/10 - it's useable now but I don't like the lines in the front and back. No matter how much I stretched the fabric it wouldn't take out the lines.
Next up: Brooks saddle repair (But in a different style)
