This thing's 20 years old and has plenty of tears on it. I've used duct tape on it but rain and butt sweat keeps peeling it off.

It's really comfy though so I don't want to get rid of it.

      I suppose it's good that I just bought a fresh roll of duct tape, then sicko-wistful

        You can strip the leather off of the saddle and then recover it like @JoeByeThen@hexbear.net said. That's by far the best option, and not as expensive to do as you might think, especially if you use some scrap material to do it. Maybe old jeans?

          It's less about the cost and more the upholstering skills required

        Embrace the jank bike life. Serves as a great deterrent to theft
