Any recommendations for saddle recover?

I have an old Flite Ti that I'd like to have recovered in black or white leather. Anyone have any suggestions? I'd do it myself if I could find the right materials, so that's an option, too.


Ideas?

I tried. After two e-mails through the website and 2 or 3 PMs here with no response, I gave up.

I've tried once a month since May. That's a really long vacation.

If you Google "bicycle saddle recovering" his web site is at the top of the list, followed by a bunch of DIY stuff.

We might have discussed other options here, but Jason is the only one that comes to my mind.

I'm here.

I don't know why an email or PM wouldn't come through.

Try again to jason@recoveredcycling.com
