ABSTRACT:
A bicycle saddle hanger and packaging device, for use with a bicycle saddle having a pair of converging mounting rails, is provided. The device generally includes a display face, a pair of arms for slidably bracing a rail of a bicycle saddle, and a tapered tongue, extending between the display face and arms, for stabilizing a saddle suspended from the device during display. The device may further include a pair of shoulders for abutting the rails during the display. Between the shoulders and the arms, a pair of v-shaped slots may be provided for enabling the sliding of the display face and arms along the rails in order to facilitate stacked packaging of a plurality of such saddles on top of one another. The entire hanger and packaging device may be comprised of a single planar member. In addition, the invention provides a package of stacked bicycle saddles each including such a hanger and packaging device. Each hanger and packaging device provides a protective interface between adjacently stacked saddles thereby reducing any need for additional packaging material.
