The preferred rigid frame includes a first and second lateral bar portions; and a cross-bar portion connecting the lateral bar portions. The rigid frame preferably is mounted by parallel bracket plates pivotally supported by the clamp. In accordance with one preferred embodiment, the seat includes a support web which is coupled to the first lateral bar portion near a first edge, to the second lateral bar portion near a second edge, and to the cross-bar near a third edge. In accordance with another preferred embodiment, the seat includes at least one cushion which at least partially surrounds the lateral bar portions. The invention provides a sturdy, comfortable seat which can either be sold as original equipment or retrofit onto an existing vehicle.
