My BSA WB30 project should have a Dunlop Rubber Saddle fitted, I have the remains of one plus a new replica top but I'm missing something at the front, how much am I missing and does it bolt on or is it braised?
Rob the metal nose bracket is sort of crimped on. The two legs should be welded on I guess but could be bolted.
I've found it best to burn the rivet holes in the rubber with a hot 4" nail. Ron
These replica saddles are not very accurate... The back of the saddle should be an 11 gauge (approx 3mm) pressed steel part, and the front is a 9 gauge (3.6mm!) pressing!
The picture I posted is from "Kingpin Components" I've never dealt with them but I guess it's worth asking them, unless it's something Jan can make? Ron
I bought a reasonably good Dunlop saddle at Beaulieu, shorter than the frame I already had and it has the flat section curved rear rather than the pressed type, but at least I have a metal nose bracket now and hopefully enough bits to make what I need.
I wonder if the C10 used the same size as the B30?
