You will probably drive the rivet heads into the leather and damage the strength of the connection. Those hand hammered, flared copper rivets on Brooks Pros and B 17s allow for your kind of moving around on the saddle without the bump you are currently experiencing. RHM might be a good guy to pm and ask as he extensively recovers and rebuilds leather saddles.
