I've got two nice leather saddles and I don't want to see them go to waste. The problem is that each one has a broken rail. One is a pre-softened Brooks Professional in honey with large rivets. I know that one can get a frame for this one. The other is an Ideale 90 "D. Rebour" in brown also. This has a very low mileage, very thick piece of leather. Very cool- Just the thing to put on your Alex Singer Randonneur. I don't know any thing about the availability of frames for this one. Maybe someone out there has one with an old piece of leather. Has anyone replaced the leather on a frame? Anybody have any idea what these things might be worth?
