Pretty in Pink!
« on: February 09, 2011, 12:31:06 PM »
So the SLR 650.  It is a lovely bike and I am happy with it in most respects.  Main exeption is the saddle. It is a Pink/Purple Gurly style thing and it grates in my eyes!

Is there any way of recolouring it without having colour runs in the wet, I assume dying it would do that?
Are there any companies that would sell me a standard seat in Black?
Anybody on here got a decent one to sell?
