My B17 has developed divots under my sit bones, which make it feel as if I'm sitting on the metal frame. These dents at the back don't seem to want to tension out, I've giving it about 1.5 turns over the past couple of weeks with little effect. Hesitant to do more for fear of stretching the leather.
I've tied the sides to stop it splaying, I ride with mudguards; although have been caught out without a bag a couples of times, it's never been properly saturated. I wonder if I've over proofide-ed.
