Saddle

florence:
Many years ago, I bought an aftermarket saddle which has a plastic base.   The cover on mine has now fallen apart and it is time to seek a replacement.  Not feeling inclined to spend my precious evenings messing about with a cover I was looking for a complete unit but was shocked to see that Dave Silvers want £125 for one, almost as much as my bike is worth!

Does anyone know where I can buy a complete aftermarket saddle, say for around £35?  Am I asking the impossible?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Green1:
£125 sounds like a bargain to me  I think I had to pay just under £400 :o
You might get a cover for £35

prices go up and up, you would be surprised at the money your bike would fetch if you ever sold it, even with all its 'patina'.

florence:
Perhaps recovering is the way forward.  Has anyone here done it, is it very difficult?
