saddle recovering repair

Quoted message said:

The minkow specialized road comp saddle used here is under the 6th
GOOP recoat-search- datakoll GOOP - in tech archives.

Last coat cured for more than a week in hot temps of 80 alt0176 and
higher. The coat was substantially more durable than the tube
directions coat cure.

Also, found dry conditions will prolong coat life.

The coat just spread followed film experts suggested curing-
thin first coat, allow to cure one week,
fill holes bringing the holes' surfaces up to the level of the first
coat, cure as before
final coat.

Coating with cool GOOP in cool temps then moving to a warmer airspace
produces a self leveling effect

See the search for further directions.

Breaking the GOOP saddle in? cover with plastic grocery bag for first
rides-kinda smooths out the GOOP .

The minkow is outstanding-the spare is good but a 50 miler was
butthurtin at 40: the minkow gives no pain at this distance.

The minkow is durable-my miles are excessive-pthe goop produces an as
new minkow-$5 v. $80.

The stores had no recreational or marine goop this time so I tried
household and itsa doing ok.

HAPPY GOOPING TOYOU UNTILL

Are you talking about the GOOP that they sell to reupholster saddles? I was
looking for some to reaffix the sole to my shoes. However, I was at the
bicycle shop and was staring at the old tub of Conti tub glue, and I asked
myself, "hmm... it's pliable when dry, reasonably strong, and holds up well
until it heats up greatly. Why not give it a try?" I glued up my shoes
using tubie glue and lo and behold, they work just fine!

So next time you're gluing tubs, look for shoes that need gluing. I think
that the GOOP is somewhat expensive, isn't it?

What is minkow?

Your tingling testes and prickling prostrate can allegedly seek relief
from Dr. Roger Minkow and his Specialized saddles featuring the
distinctive V-cut profile - aka the Minkow Wedge. Perhaps datakoll will
substantiate this claim.

I get a small quantity of something from the local shoemaker. He
pours it out of a gallon can. I think that it's called Barge cement.
It seems to be super stick rubber cement. Needless to say, it's great
for cementing leather and saddle repair. It's too thick to patch
tires with.

go with the Permatex 15 minute epoxy specifying rubber on the package's
materials column
we did a sole/upper glue discussion in shoe repair-
Barge had advocates but Barge is not specific for rubber or rubber like
materials

I went into the spec dealer for a feely-wanted to buy the T-saddle but
had no dealer dough. Found the road comp on web sale but the T's went
out of favour.
1000% improvement over the firm, and somewhat firm hi end 10 speed
saddles shelved here.
The big time deal here in sunny south florida is AC!

This saddle[1] supposedly delivers a blast of AC - CFC free! - like no
other. And when riding sans fenders in the rain, the Flow Saddle is
transformed into a bidet, permeating your pudendum in soothing streams
of wheelspray. Or so reviewers attest...

Yes, Virginia, the cutout cools the pudendum, less moisture, less
bacterial (and viral) flow. this is very comfortable compared with the
san marco type 10 speed saddles
I had prostrates-wrong word but go with it-from bouncing off the nose.

DK, if a nose is in the habit of contacting your prostrate then I
suggest you consult a NG other than r.b.t. This forum is for bicycle
related matters.

Hey, Luke, half a smiley for the joke, but even I could decipher this
bit of Gene's prose: "I had prostatitis from bouncing off the nose of
the saddle"

we did a discussion of glues searching for a self sealing tube glue-the
moisture screws up the bond, creepoing under the patch and...
napa sells a tire glue that is tops but the bell glue holds its own-
tube rubber specific
the factor here is the pro patch's feathered edge giving more weight to
the glue than the patch-once the feathered edge glues down solid then
peel is less likely but not the tunneling from self sealer's moisture.
for the cross country specialized 14 tubes one could approach super
glue
maybe in the super locktite range at locktite prices-super works
1000%-maybe there's a hydrophobic super locktite suitable for rubber?
would be interested in hearing an explanation of LBS barge

Yeah, I should've made more effort. I've been getting lazy ever since
misplacing my datakoll/g.Daniels --> English dictionary.
