Major upgrade to our page on repair of leather saddles – Complete do-it-yourself information.
A rail on your Brooks leather saddle broke? Our new page lists repair sites around the world. Your repaired saddle will be better than new, because it is broken in. Photo: Simon Firth, of Transport cycles, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, authorized Brooks repair site. Do-it-yourself repair is also sometimes possible and we tell how.
Major additions to our page on leather saddles — descriptions and photos of different Brooks saddle models, comments on other brands, lots more advice on adjustments and leather care.
John has updated chains.html, with some added thoughts about chain cleaning, and more pictures; also leather.html, with a couple of comments from readers about leather treatments; k7.html and k8.shtml to reflect changes in product availability.
John has created a table of contents page for the articles which Sheldon wrote for the Adventure Cycling Association’s magazine, Adventure Cyclist, from 1997 through 2007. Many of these articles relate to ones on this site, and John is adding links and in some cases revising the related articles on this site. For example, the article on fenders has undergone major revisions.
