Patent attributes
A multi-degree-of-freedom riding saddle includes a support portion connected to a bicycle frame. A mechanical linkage may connect a first and a second seat plate to the support portion, such that the first and second seat plates each define a floating link of the mechanical linkage. A respective first connecting rod is coupled to a front end of each seat plate, and a respective second connecting rod is coupled to a rear end of each seat plate. A first swing cross rod connects the first connecting rods such that a lowering of a front end of one of the seat plates causes a front end of the other seat plate to rise. A second swing cross rod connects the second connecting rods such that a lowering of a rear end of one of the seat plates causes a rear end of the other seat plate to rise.
