I'm the second owner of a Rivendell 'plastic B17' 182.55 saddle. I noticed a little noise/rocking in my ride and did find play in one of the rear side rails where it meets the mounting area (plastic/polymer/rubber)

Has anyone else encountered this? Can I squeeze some liquid nails or epoxy down there as a solution?

I have a few saddles of various makers like that, it's not uncommon. I've left mine alone buy I've read of some using Loctite epoxy, but any brand should do. Just a little, saddle upside down, use a toothpick if needed to get it in there better.
