First a reveal of my lovely new-to-me 2005 City...the next 2 pics are from RDC showing wear on the top edge and the corners. Based on the pics I opted to have Corey send the bag to LMB for a repair while it was on layaway. (I'm in Canada and thought I could save on shipping that way).The following pics show the repair to the top edge and corners. I have no prior experience with a Bal repair and would be interested in hearing from others who have. I'm of mixed feelings about it. The product used is quite stiff...I had imagined something more along the lines of a rubber compound that would still have some pliability but I truly don't know what products will and will not work. The top edge has lost any softness it may have originally had, and in spots is somewhat rough. I probably should have taken a look at the bag in real life before deciding whether or not to repair it.
So, would I do it again? Probably, to stop any further damage, but I do feel it's changed the character of the bag somewhat....any comments out there re: repair experiences with LMB or any other place?
