Part of you know some of my leather work from this bike:
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=301518
Some time ago i did recovery for my saddle. I bought some thread and leather. It was nothing special but works fine until today.
It was for me a great fun to make it. So i decided to read about leatherwork. Now, i make everything by my hands. Cut, dye finish, and all is made from vegetable-tanned leather and stainless steel.
This is results of 3 years my work on some standards bicycle product:
But the fact is that the most interesting thing will be custom made:
It's full rebuild, shell make from hardened leather, stitched by hand
I will update this thread with new works
