    My lovely comfy SDG Bel-Air is starting to wear and was wondering if anyone re-covers such things?

    I did a saddle once on a bmx years ago with some old jeans and a staple gun. Came out ok after a couple of goes and getting good at stretching the denim across.

    It’s very easy. I have done mine lately
    Remove the old liner, use it as pattern and use some contact glue.

    What did you use to re-cover Juan.
    Anyone tried a WTB saddle with their love groove channel thing?
    I’ve got a mint condition Ti Rocket V that got munched by a mouse in the shed. Seems a waste to bin it.

    Just some cow pattern fabric. And some neoprene glue. Works a treat.

    I’ve made a lovely punched leather cover to fit my super comfy flite ti. Time consuming but satisfying. I used leather, bought from ebay. The hole pinch was from Dunelm Mills, as was the stitching wheel to pierce the holes for the thread. Timpsons gave great advice.
