I've been thinking of buying the leather saddle. The current white/red Lynx I ride is comfortable & I bought it at a discount but the graphics are all wore away. Plus I like leather & I know it'll last a long time.
For treatment, I'd recommend Obenauf's. Not a lot is needed & it was created for wildland firefighters to protect their leather boots from chemicals, heat, water, etc. so it'll definitely work well on a bike saddle. Also, Viberg's leather treatment is re-branded Obenauf's as is Nicks Boots in Spokane, WA.
I'd like to see a leather saddle with the rough side out. It would eventually wear smooth & would probably look good once it was 'broken in'...
