Will this work?
Condition: Mint condition. No fading, no worn stitches, no separation. Rails are straight, base is solid. Lots of miles left.
Notes from MyBikeThing: The saddle every Japanese 10-speed left the factory with — and the one most of them destroyed within a decade. Finding a Taihei Unite with the quilting tight and the leather unfaded is the hard part; restorers of 70s-80s Japanese road bikes know exactly why this one’s worth grabbing. Diamond quilted comfort, period-correct down to the reflector mounts.
Workshop Wisdom: Quilted leather tops want occasional conditioner, not oil — oil soaks the stitching and rots thread from inside. A light leather conditioner twice a year keeps the diamonds crisp for another forty years.
Guarantee: You put in the miles, we put in the work! 30 day Guarantee, rest assured of fit, function and condition 🙂
