After a longer ride than usual last week the leather on my B17 has stretched softened up considerably more, mostly near the outer rear rivets. It seems like the deep sides now rub a bit on my inner thighs too, they sort of flare out a bit.

Rather than crank the tightening nut, I've drilled and laced it like this, but with fewer holes: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/I...Full/27875.jpg

Pleased to say it still feels comfortable but more supporting and feels 'sportier'.
