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

Try again to jason@recoveredcycling.com

Jason is heckuva nice guy, but 'great' may be a stretch.

Alexander, he ain't ;)

He's done saddles for me before, and will again if I can get my act together... highly recommended.

Almost there. I have some position tweaks to make. Track position is different than the road. Getting some weird numbness in a few spots.

I'm pretty dialed in on gearing and effort numbers. I'm not going to set any records :)
