Saddle support especially for a bicycle

摘要

A saddle support, in particular for a bicycle, includes an outer pipe casing that can be positioned in an open pipe of a bicycle frame. A first piston-cylinder unit provides resilience and a second piston-cylinder unit provides height adjustment of a saddle. A piston rod of the first piston-cylinder unit has an upper end to support the saddle and extends shiftably inside a sheath-shaped piston rod of the second piston-cylinder unit which can be moved in the pipe casing. The two piston rods can be fixed relative to the pipe casing by respective clamping devices. Each piston rod is provided with a valve for adjusting the pressure of a medium in a chamber of the respective piston-cylinder unit. Such saddle support enables resilience and height adjustment of the saddle possible while riding.
