ABSTRACT:
A bicycle seat and a method of attaching same to a bicycle frame are provided wherein the seat includes an elongated, rounded triangular-shaped element having an upper face adapted for receiving a rider. The seat's underside has at least a portion that comprises a depression, and is surrounded by a lower edge. Depending from the underside adjacent a front and rear thereof are elements for affixing front and rear ends of seat rails thereto. The seat rails are recessed into the seat's underside depression, and do not protrude beneath the seat's lower edge. The seat is attached to the bicycle frame using a single-bolt post, by snapping the rails into the post's apertures, adjusting the seat along a longitudinal axis until a desired position is achieved, and tightening the post's bolt.
