Re: [RC] [RC] more leather questions?? - Suzi Maiorisi

Is there something you can put on the seat of your saddle to make it more...'grippy'?  I've got a new one but it's pretty smooth and I don't like that loose/sliding/movable feeling that I get in it.  My old saddle has some kind of leather on it that gives just a bit of traction - it's still smooth, no suede or rough out, but it sure seems to hold me in place somehow but really doesn't fit Holly well.  Any hints?
