DIY - Cover your cracked/old/crap saddle

Hi Skelator, great work!

Do you really need to drill the original rivets out?

I haven't got the tools for pop rivets, so was wondering if I took the original rivets out carefully I may be able to put them back or possibly glue them back on. I guess I'm starting out with a tough project, should've practiced with some simpler saddles first!

if you're planning on doing this regularly invest in one, they aren't expensive and theyre easy to use

or borrow one from a forum member or friend. the badge might look a bit daft with two holes, and you can easily get glueing something so fiddly wrong unless you're careful
