I'm not fully committed to the Sella, it's sagging and will likely need to be re-covered fairly soon. I do have a honey Brooks on another bike that I don't ride a lot, I've been toying with putting that saddle on the Riv. I have also been considering going to a more standard, lighter black saddle.

I have used amber shellac on both yellow and orange Newbaum’s and found the yellow to be closer to the honey brown on a Brooks. The old adage was the tape should match the saddle. Are you sticking with that one? And are you committed to cloth tape/shellac? Doug -- You received this message

I really like the burnt orange. It would go well with your other appointments. On Monday, April 8, 2019 at 9:31:18 AM UTC-6, Keith Weaver wrote: > > Hi, > I've recently installed 46 cm Noodle bars on my old Riv Road Standard, and > am wondering what color bar tape to put on. These bars came to
