Thanks for all your responses. I have a saddle cover, but between switching bags and gear, it ended up not on the ride with me. This particular saddle has been out on some pretty wet rides recently, and I'm afraid it's ending up being the "foul weather" saddle, and therefore sort of a tester. It has been Brooks Proofride-ed, but I don't want to keep putting that on, as I'm worried about softening the leather excessively. (It's already noticeably softer from the rain, despite it being my newest Brooks.) Hence my earlier question.
The shellac idea was really just an idea to cover the first inch or so, which seems to be both exposed and under stress. Just a little shed-the-water thought. Plus, I can't stop shellacking stuff. Lucky my dog is so quick. Well, my dog is lucky she's so quick. I'm going to track down some of that NikWax or whatever my town cobbler feels will do the same thing. - Jim -- Jim Edgar cyclofi...@earthlink.net Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes "Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it."
