Duct Tape. Cheap and easy.

Thanks LTC. Does it melt under the sun?

No it doesn't. Just clean the surface before u stick it so it doesn't peel off easily.

U may see black stick stuff around the edges after a while.

Available at hardware shops.

Did u get the wrong tape?

DUCT Tape will stick and very difficult to peel.

This is how it looks like.

if you cant stand the unsightly tape, just send for a re-wrap. a plain leather re-wrap shouldn cost above 50, based on standard sized seats.

His main problem will be the fellow going around cutting the seats.

if the problem is the vandal, then the answer is a bike cover, followed by a police report if the vandal cuts through the cover.

 

i'm giving an answer for the seat.
