The saddle on the left in the image above is a top-of-the-line Idéale Model 92. The leather is Rodée Main Selon DRebour (broken-in by hand, using the process developed by the great bicycling illustrator Daniel Rebour). Tne aluminum undercarriage cracked around the clamp-bolt hole, and the nose of the saddle would not stay up. These saddles in good shape go for big bucks now. That is all about style and their rarity: the design is flawed. Well, steel saddle rails also do break. In the photo below, I have removed the leather and inserted new rivets. | The saddle on the left in the image above is a top-of-the-line Idéale Model 92.

The rivet locations and the shoe in the nose of the saddle are identical to those of an Idéale Model 80 with cracked leather that I bought for $26 on eBay. This is what happens if a leather saddle is left out in the rain for years, and never re-oiled | The rivet locations and the shoe in the nose of the saddle are identical to those of an Idéale Model 80 with cracked leather that I bought for $26 on eBay.
