ABSTRACT:
A Bicycle Seat Support (14) includes a rotationally-biased centering mechanism (20) for coupling a seat mount (16) to a frame mount (18). The rotationally-biased centering mechanism has a biasing mechanism for causing the seat mount and an attached bicycle seat to rotate toward a normal angular position about a seat axis (36) while allowing the bicycle seat to be forced away from this normal angular position by pressure applied by a rider when pedaling the bicycle. The rotationally-biased centering mechanism includes bearing surfaces (48,50) having an interface which allows the seat mount and the frame mount to rotate while not allowing substantial axial movement. Stops are included for preventing excessive angular seat movement.
