Mine are getting quite grotty-looking due to this wet weather and sometimes they are not drying out.

Would it make sense to remove from bike and put in house to dry at room temperature?

Does anyone use saddle soap on theirs?

As always, thank you so much. 🙂

Yeah, that would make sense to me. That’s what I’d do with motorcycle leathers.

Something along the lines of saddle soap would be handy to keep them supple and protect the stitching (Stitiching rots) I’ve got some MC leather stuff somewhere…..

Are your forks OK? Any better?

Brooks sell Proofide – I use Sno-seal. A liberal dose of it under the saddle will help prevent water from soaking in that way.

Thanks for the replies. Not a Brooks saddle – Selle Italia. Some TLC is called for me thinks.

Pete – thank you, still a bit stiff and making sure seals are wiped around after use. I can’t remember what pressure you set them to, can you?

Ohhhh crikey. No I can’t remember either. It wasn’t much. 90-100 psi???

This is what you want saddle has to be dry first but cleans and protects – good on boots and shoes but my kids keep stealing it for their horse tack!!
