Abstract

See full text

A bicycle seat in which the rider's weight is distributed away from the center of the rider's body toward the buttocks and legs. Front and rear central indentations that are formed in the seat to reduce the longitudinal length in the central portion of the bicycle seat and minimize contact between the bicycle seat and the central seating area of a rider's body. An extended seating surface extends laterally outward from the longitudinal axis of the bicycle to provide a more comfortable seating area upon which the buttocks of the rider can more fully support the rider's body weight. An optional central cavity extends longitudinally along the central portion of the upper surface of the bicycle seat such that the extended seating surface is separated into separate left and right segments, each segment supporting one of the rider's buttocks. The central cavity is formed with a width and depth sufficient to minimize or eliminate contact between the central seating area of a rider's body and the upper surface of the bicycle seat such that the bicycle seat does not interfere with or injure the circulatory system of the rider in the central seating area of the rider's body. Optional left front and right front sloped surfaces extend forward and downward from the extended seating surface such that the left and right legs of the rider, respectively, are supported as the rider pedals. An optional adjustable seating surface provides additional comfort to the rider.
