A bicycle seat (10) having a single piece of fabric (20) slung across a frame member and resembling a hammock. The fabric is drawn taut and resides generally in a single plane. In contrast to a saddle seat which requires one to straddle one's buttocks across a small padded seat with weight unevenly distributed thereon, the present invention forms a sling to evenly support the weight of the rider across a large surface area. The fabric has an elongated sleeve (21) at one end which is threaded over the frame, and can be easily removed therefrom for washing or replacement. The frame (12) is comprised of a single rod formed into an upwardly extending triangular frame. An adjusting mechanism (24) at the proximal end of the seat can be adjusted to effect the tautness of the fabric. A conventional coupling clamp (40) is implemented to couple the seat frame to a conventional bicycle. With the large, planar, weight supporting surface, one can enjoy a more comfortable ride without the discomfort created by conventional seats, and will not be sore thereafter. |
