  • Wanted it on in a hurry and told myself I’d redo it at some stage.. don’t judge!

    Re. The saddle, am considering a shower cap seat cover (how does one secure a tesco bag?) but currently am looping my chain through it as @Skülly has suggested. Chain is just about long enough though, so will make locking around bigger objects a pain if it ever gets to it.. it’s a shame but I’m considering swapping out a saddle just for the peace of mind of being able to lock up and come back to a bike I can still ride home!

    On an unrelated note; for the more knowledgeable amongst you, does anyone know if this 753 specimen is likely to date from the early 90s..?

  • For saddle security you could always take and old track chain, loop it threw the seat and rear stays, also put the chain in an old innner tube to protect paint and finally a bag taped around the saddle as cruedly as possible.

    Iv done this in the past for brooks protection and it seemed to work.
