I had a spectacular crash awhile back which resulted in the
frame of my Brooks B66 getting bent irreparably out of
shape. The leather is still in good shape, and wallbike
sells the frames separately as a spare part, so I'm going to
rebuild it.
My question is how to set the tension. Everything I read
says it's best to never, ever touch the tensioner, but as
that ship has already sailed, I need a guideline for how to
find the best initial setting for the tension when I
reassemble the saddle. Anyone have a suggestion? I'd also
appreciate any tips as to the best procedure for
reassembling everything.
