Doesn't exactly relate to the OP, but close enough:
Next month, I should get my mitts on my mom's Brooks saddle... bought 1971! Sister says it has a rip, but assuming it isn't too bad, how would I go about restoring it? I can get saddlesoap and neatsfoot oil, but thought it was best to ask some Brooks owners first. I'm more worried about the state of the very old leather than the tension. The saddle has been sitting in a box for years so is a bit dry. It was on her '71 Gitane that was crushed by a falling stone wall- luckily no-one was hurt in that collapse.
Anyway I have a black merino wool 'Brooks' jersey, bought from those fine people at Mercian Cycles, so I'll have to get a Brooks!
