If your high end saddle is getting a little tatty but the rails are straight, you might consider using Sugru to tidy it up before finally being retired to the pub bike.

Rough Around the Edges?

The nose, sides and tail of a saddle are often subject to more abuse than the rest of it.

Apply Sugru

Take a small amount of Sugru, roll it in your fingers to warm it up and make it more malleable. Apply to areas in need of repair.

Tidy Up

Be patient, gently work away at it to get a tidy finish. Sugru is awesome stuff but if your fingerprints are left on it before setting they will be there for all eternity.

Leave to Set

Leave the Sugru to set for 24 hours, then you're good to go.
