So “check your billets” they say! What exactly does that mean? It means to look and make sure the stitching is solid but there is more to it than that. I always look to make sure the knots are still secure. I check that the stitching is double strand or a very thick strand and it isn’t wearing out. Is the stitching loose or tight? In this picture you can see the stitching is very loose. This can cause more wear and break sooner. Billets are a big piece to the safety of you and your saddle. Having them checked and replaced or restitched by a professional is the best way to make sure they are safe to use.
